May Rhapsody In Pink

“the redness had seeped from the day and night was arranging herself around us. Cooling things down, staining and dyeing the evening purple and blue black.” 

~ Sue Monk Kidd, The Secret Life of Bees


Fortunately, I was able to just barely catch the last glimmer of sunset pink reflected in a little pond by the roadside this evening. 
I was actually heading toward a nearby stream, but I soon realized the light was rapidly fading and would be gone before I arrived; so I quickly pulled over when I caught a glimpse of glimmering pink in an otherwise dusky blue-gray panorama.
