• Almost Blue

  The evening air starts to cool down after quite a warm day. Not the warmest, but quite warm just the same.The trees are still, indicating only the slightest of breezes.The occasional shrill chirp can be heard from a hastily flying bird, dashing home to its nest to get settled for the night ahead.Children return home,…
