After Dark


It is 9:20 pm on the lower right hand corner of my YOGA Lenovo...  and, I am sitting outside in my screened-in back porch listening to the rain, sitting on a cushioned chair that we brought in from the outside deck when we purchased new deck furniture last year.  The rain has been consistently pouring down mildly forceful for the last twenty minutes when I first came out here to write a little before going to bed since I love listening to the rain...  therapeutic and relaxing as it rams itself into the ground or whatever objects with which it comes into contact.

Across the way (directly in front of me)  I see only darkness and six lights, three of which are street lamps and three of which are lights attached to a house.  I can tell this because of their brightness and proximity to the ground as I have perceived it to be in my mind.  The brighter lights have three to four rings around them and banners of faint light shoots out from both sides, top and bottom, giving me the impression of a cross.  And while the less bright lights have this same light configuration, it is not as bold.

Together, all six lights look like some kind of star constellation if they were only much higher in the the perceived sky... and all around everywhere else except inside my screened-in porch, there is complete and eerie darkness as the rain continues to fall and hit objects.  The temperature on the clock like thermometer reads just shy of eighty degrees but that must account for being somewhat inside and protected because I can feel the chilly air move through the screen like plant osmosis.

It is now 9:37 and I have had enough of my writing for this day...
