a defining light

I was frustrated with words, ideas and people today. I think I need to slow down, wrestle one idea at a time.

maybe just a walk....

I went out for a walk. I have always loved this time of day, this time of year. It alters me deeply. The light on the mountains, in the air. The slow mix of colour from above, to horizon.
A sliver of moon, just at the edge, floating,
the light from the day passed shining through it.
It stirs feelings inside I cannot define, this autumn light. It is both painful and sweet, sorrow mixed with a quiet joy.
My words still cannot define it
Yet.

standing on the edge
balanced on the curve of night
falling into blue

I have also been thinking about my daily brushes with infinity.
(This stirred up from a thread of conversation.)
But, infinity is not for tonight.
Unless it will help make this pile of paperwork go away.
