saving daylight



the days, shortening, have shifted.
the morning harbour is once again washed in watery gold, and my evening homecoming is suddenly draped in darkness.
i'm undecided: do i prefer the light early? or late?
it's a moot point. in just weeks, dawn and dusk will be attempting an encounter somewhere in the early afternoon, and we will all be grateful for whatever winter brightness we can find.

*photoblogs.org has a whole new design, and a whole new ranking system: worth a visit, definitely, and compliments...

*and my exceptional daughter has got her new site up and running. it's lovely; i am PROUD. i always am.

  1. In your generosity you have leant the evenings to us ... we shall give them back untarnished come March.

  3. I know, isn't it depressing? Drive to work in the dark, drive home in the dark. Sigh.

  5. I can't wait to read your daughter's blog!! That's so cool. (Now if only I could get my mom to blog along with me, too... LOL)
    I wrote a poem about this Daylight Savings business for a creative writing class last year. This entry reminded me of it... I'll have to go dig it up!

  9. Those yellow buoy things seem animate to me, like yellow birds waiting to have their photo taken.
