The Night Transforms Simple Things

Tail lights shine like rubies on long dark distant roads, headlights are like mini suns heading your way along lonely highways. The night transforms simple things into what the mind wants to see. Fleeting shadows dancing under cars headlights become spooky encounters along lonely country roads. The silence of the night is eerie driving without the radio on. Our over active imagination creates things not there in front of our tired eyes. Pulling over to rest a while and standing out in the evenings cool breeze alerts us to the sounds of the night that from within the car we can never hear, but outside it all becomes clear and the night is alive with sounds waiting for the breaking of a new day. 22 July 2014
