heavenly day part III

Where were you at 4:33?  Saying goodbye to your office mates?  Sliding your bank card at the express lane in the grocery?  Flipping through the mail while you waited for the dog to come to the back door?  Wherever it was, this was here.  This corner where a cornfield and grasslands are divided by an over-grown fence row.  The crickets, they were here.  The trees were here, absorbing the heat from the sun even as they pondered the winter ahead, and a rest from all that photosynthesis.  The breeze?  Here, lifting leaves and limbs...

Right now, it's Legos and dinner and piano practice.  All the heaven of home -- but here the cool air rises from the shade as the shadows lengthen and the light fades.
