The Blink of an Eye

One moment the sky was blue and the sun was beating down as the cars sat on the freeway, inching their way home.

Another moment, I was sitting dripping with sweat after a run in that sun, and great clouds rose up out of the east.

Another moment, the limestone terrace outside the window was glowing pink from setting sunlight sneaking out thru a gap in the clouds somewhere.

And then it was dark night.

They go by so fast, these days. One moment the sky is blue. The next moment it is black. And in a blink of an eye, it's time to start all over again.
