I wait patiently for the shadow behind me. I stare up at the night sky, delicately glaring through God's creation; the stars above. Quietly humming a melody, the air breathes after I exhale. It waits patiently for me, as I do for anyone. I'd like to share the stars with her, show her what beauty...

The grass was cut. The sun was punching the clock. And I was waiting for the last load of laundry to finish to hang it on the line.
