Wet Again

Fine misty rain again. I love the way it gathers on the poppies. Large

Yesterday took more out of me than I realised. I fell into bed a bit after seven, without having my evening meal or even the pill that helps me sleep, and I slept like a teenager. About 10 pm I went to the bathroom and looked out the window. I knew I was dreaming when I saw the dark sky with a breathtaking glow of subdued coral. It was majestic and unfathomably silent.

I slept on. After midnight I woke hungry and thirsty. A drink of water and a handful of fresh cherries was all I needed before I dropped off again. I finally awoke at 6.30 am.

And that is how I missed what is regarded as the most stunning sunset for ages.
