reverie

I took a moment to rest my eyes today. looking up from the screen in front of me, what i saw took my breath away.
beyond the rustle and bustle of downtown, i saw the sun setting. its scorching yellow now turned to a fiery red. the colors playfully casting shadows in the sky turning the clouds to shades of purple nd pink, making them look like candy floss. the first stars twinkling in the sky; the lone falcon soaring high above, beconing me to fly away, taking my thoughts to events in my past- the victories and failures, milestones and set-backs. Making me wonder how has life treated me so far?
but the sky outside turns an inky blue- twilight - my favourite part of the day. the part where the ruthless wordly day, slowly and steadily turns the world into a shy coy princess draping a fine dark veil on her face. it makes me forget my question.

far off the phone lets out a persistant ring bringing me back from my reverie. i see the number on the caller-id, and smile to myself-
life has indeed treated me well.....
