Star light, star bright

This is the sight that stopped me in my tracks as I left the Temple after choir rehearsal tonight. Can you see the first star?

These long summer evenings really are magical, reminding me of the impulse from my long ago childhood days.

Star light, star bright,
First star I see tonight;
I wish I may, I wish I might
Have the wish I wish tonight.

Blue skies and the first star

I felt so blessed to wake up to blue skies today.

I mean, there’s nothing like three weeks of constant rain and clouds to remind one of how wonderful sunshine can be. 🌞

And then to arrive home at dusk and see the first star against indigo skies…bliss, indeed!

(I’m not the greatest photographer but I hope you can see it, just barely above the bare branches of the tree in the middle of the photo.)
