How lovely are the portals
of the night, when stars
come out to watch
the daylight die.
Thomas Cole
Soft tropical light
filtering
through the palms.
“They will still bear fruit
in old age, they will stay
fresh and green."

Psalm 92:14
Photography deals exquisitely
with appearances, but nothing
is what it appears to be.
Duane Michals
Beyond the edge of sorrow
Awaits another tomorrow.
Soft dawn ends
The quiet night,
Filling shadows
With hopeful light.
Steps may falter,
hearts may ache,
Yet morning comes
And sleepers wake.
So hold this promise
Deep and true
New days bloom
And so can you.

It's quiet reminder that every dawn brings another chance to begin again is both comforting and beautifully expressed.
Thanks for the portal of the night, and your wonderful poem about the promise of dawn. The portal works both ways!
That 1st pic is wonderful as is your poem, Cloudia. ;-)
I don't think I've ever seen a night portal, but your photo nailed it!
That Thomas Cole quote about the stars watching the daylight die is so beautiful, and it sets such a perfect, peaceful mood for your photos. The combination of that soft tropical light filtering through the palms with your own uplifting poem really brought a sense of hope and comfort to my Monday. Your words about holding onto the promise of a new day blooming are exactly what a quiet morning reflection needs. Sending lots of love back to you and Pixie from across the miles.
Great mural and Pixie is so cute and content!
I love your poem about new days dawning. Great photos, too. Pixie looks like she wants to sleep until noon and forget the new dawn. Was she out singing to the moon last night?
Beautiful poem, Amazing photos, 1st and Rainbow pic just awesome. Mural looks great. Have a nice week ahead. Greetings to you and Pixie :)
