this evening, two different times

[asakiyume]

First, let me tell you what the parking lot at the supermarket was like, around 5:45 pm, on my way home. There was a smell of cinnamon, maybe from someone's discarded gum, and the sun was at the edge of a tide of rain-colored clouds, and there were goldfinches somewhere nearby--you couldn't see them, but you could hear them.

Now let me show you what the sky was like closer to home, about an hour later.

Prrrrt.

Now let me show you what the sky was like closer to home, about an hour later.

Thank you. That's a wonderful sky.

[asakiyume]

It was a good evening to be looking skyward

[umadoshi]

That sky is breathtaking. *^^*

[asakiyume]

You could play in those waves ^_^

[zyzyly]

So pretty!

[asakiyume]

Yes!

[cmcmck]

Such a pretty sky.

We're missing the region's usually magnificent sunsets over the Welsh hils as we've had such a dull and cloudy Summer. :o(

[asakiyume]

Hopefully you get *some* breaks of sun in the days ahead

Oh, oh, oh. <3

I have no laundry in my current apartment and so once a week or so I have to walk over to the laundromat, but the good part is there's a park nearby where I can then sit and read a book, and it's got a really nice view of the sky. So I have been taking a lot of sky pictures too! It has been a very soothing part of my life this summer.

[asakiyume]

Wonderful! Are you posting them anywhere? I love looking at sky pictures.

[pameladean]

Oh, a very small prose poem and then a photo. What a fine entry.

[asakiyume]

Thank you very much--knowing how much I love your views of nature and the world, I'm delighted to be able to provide (a little) similar for you!

The trees are weaving light
into cloud cover, tossing
the billows skyward.

[asakiyume]

"Here, wear this garment to your sunset," they said.

(love your poem)

[amaebi]

I like that added bit, and add to it--
And the birds sing.

[asakiyume]

Perfect
