Lighting Moment 8 (LizB)

It is early morning and the light is only just touching the deep denim-colored mountains. Pink, violet, periwinkle layers to the left. Clear gold light emerging from the right. Glittering lights of cars passing by. The bare branches of the tree outside my window are dark and sinewy against the multicolored horizon. The light changes quickly now, pinks melt away, then purples, leaving blue and gold to reign. A few warm lights begin to glow in the windows of cold, dark buildings. Day begins.
