Over the Hill again

The light was fading fast and I was dashing to get to Mum in time to take her to visit Dad in hospital.
Over the hill road, the trees stood crisp on the horizon, with the light turning a rosey glow as the sun set.
After some 200 miles today and a days work, this candle can only burn from both ends for so long. Hopefully might sleep a bit better tonight.
