PROMPT: This Evening

What are you doing this evening?

Who can know such things? I’m not a fortuneteller. But as I just came off a travel cycle, a betting person would put his money on something sleep related.

PROMPT: Favorite Time

Daily writing prompt
What’s your favorite time of day?

When all is quiet and harmonious, and one anticipates good things are to come.

“Soft as the massacre of Suns” (1127) by Emily Dickinson [w/ Audio]

Soft as the massacre of Suns
By Evening's Sabres slain

Empty Pasture [Haiku]

in woods' shade, 
cattle sit or stand, &
file barn-ward at dusk.

A Day’s Last Gasp [Haiku]

warm pre-dusk light
glows through yellow blossoms;
sundown sneaks nearer.

PROMPT: Evening

What are you doing this evening?

Probably just reading and otherwise restfully winding down from the day.

But who can know what the future holds?

The scaffolding was a stage erected for New Year’s Eve festivities. I assume the flowers and lights were part of that function as well, but my experience is limited; I only saw the Opera House before and after New Year’s Eve. (We were on a junk boat over the holiday itself.)
