circle dizzily beneath the falling sky,
circle dizzily beneath the falling sky,
their arms outstretched. —Gary Short

  1. i dont know how you do it. every day you keep coming home with the grail. i could have lived another thousand years and never had the opportunity to see a vulture’s mouth open wide. i love circling dizzily with you.

  2. Perfect verse! Love that sunset shot! Beautiful colors!
    I watched the sunset while on Iron Mt Road…but forgot to bring a flashlight along for the walk back—oops! It’s beautiful here at night!
