Mud Valley Memories
This is a very peaceful shot of a sunset over Mud Valley. I can almost hear the twittering of the birds as they settle down for the night. The cool night air would be drifting in over the valley. We might smell leaves burning or freshly-mown grass. I like how the sun lights up the trees.
What a gorgeous picture! Looks a lot like the shot of the sun over the silos:).
ReplyDeleteNow the day is over
ReplyDeleteNight is drawing nigh
Shadows of the evening
Steal across the sky.
Now the darkness gathers
Stars begin to peep
Birds, and beasts and flowers
Soon will be asleep.
Jesus, give the weary
Calm and sweet repose
With Thy tenderest blessing
May mine eyelids close.
Grant to little children
Visions bright of Thee
Guard the sailors tossing
On the deep, blue sea.
Comfort those who suffer
Watching late in pain
Those who plan some evil
From their sin restrain.
Through the long night watches
May Thine angels spread
Their white wings above me
Watching round my bed.
When the morning wakens
Then may I arise
Pure, and fresh, and sinless
In Thy holy eyes.
Glory to the Father
Glory to the Son
And to Thee, blest Spirit
While all ages run.
(by Sabine Baring-Gould, 1865)
