From My Window - Watching The Day Leave


"Entrances to holiness are everywhere." - Bamidbar Rabba


I sat at my desk and through my window - I watched the day leave . . .

and the jackdaws come home to roost in the big old trees that are their home

. . . and the sun slid slowly down the sky as dusk arrived

. . . and day gave way to night.

"The earth's a door, if you press your ear against it." - David Mitchell

There is one tree that like a shadow looks, like a halloween tree soon to pop open his eyes and maybe even walk the night.

Like the fruit trees in the movie Wizard of Oz that didn't like having their apples picked. This one looks like he could be a little grumpy like he is cold and naked.

If he did have eyes, I think they would be sad eyes.
