In Love


The surface of the lake reflected the rich red-orange of the setting sun.  Merging into purple the entire majesty of sky was suffused in color.  Golden rays of light flashed upwards from the final sliver of sun sinking behind a band of silhouetted hills highlighting the ethereal clouds in gilt.

At the end of the dock the newlywed couple stood in awe of the resplendent display.  He raised her silken hand to his lips and gently kissed her new wedding band.  She turned toward him and softly caressed his tousled hair.  Lost in each other’s eyes, sunset forgotten, they embraced.
