Sunset

The sun sets toward the back of our yard, which is rather overgrown with trees and brush. So we don’t really see sunsets here.

But one evening I noticed how beautiful the sun was, shining through the trees on its way down.

So we will count this as a sunset.

Lisey was heading out for a ride on her motorcycle, so I snapped one of her in the golden light too.

    I see my sunsets through the trees, too. I can’t stand to face west as the sun sets in the summer, as it’s still too hot to stand in the sunshine at sunset, but in the winter, I love to see the deepening shades of lilac, orange, yellow and pink through the trees as the sun drops.

    “My sun” sets behind trees, too, and has that magical light. I take photos, but it doesn’t really capture the beauty. Your photos are better! And sometimes when I really need to see the actual sunset, I know some great places!
    Are you having flooding?

      Mercifully, we have had no flooding here. I think they must have a good drainage system set up!

What’s Kristen Prompted?

Originally, it was me, writing from a list of daily prompts.

But for the moment, I’m using it to share the small essays I’ve written over the last two years, since my evangelical self left my marriage.

Because I don’t want this to be an internet tabloid, the new posts here are only available to members of my Patreon community.

My main blog is The Frugal Girl, if you’d like to read more of my words! All posts there are free.
