As the Sun Slips Below the Horizon

The Magic of the Night

By Randy DannenfelserPublished 3 years ago 1 min read

Every day, we held our breath as the sun slipped below the horizon, convinced magic vanished with its dying light. Shadows gathered, colors faded, and we yearned for the dawn. But one lonely night, we peered into the darkness. To our astonishment, the stars twinkled like floating landscapes, we weaved tales of the dancing figures alit in the velvet sky. Fireflies danced in ethereal unison, casting a soft glow upon the whispers of the night calling birds serenading our souls. We discovered even in the depths of darkness you can find a twinkling magic that equals daylight's brilliance.
