Begining of the Night

The sun sets with one last ray shooting across the sky, as if in an effort to stave off the oncoming darkness. One last attempt before dissapearing below the horizon. Then comes the darkness, the cool air turning to cold, then colder as the dark settles in. Stars Brighten the black of the sky and, hidden in the black of the night lies a sliver of silver that is the moon. The grasshoppers play the chorus and far off in the woods the owl softly hoots the melody. Thus settles the night leaving behind the day.
