Another Pink Sunset

Istijlál (Majesty), 6 Masá’il (Questions), 166 BE – Thursday, December 17, 2009 about Sunset Pacific Time

Another sunset
pink clouds above the mountains
announce the day's end.

I looked out my window and saw the clouds transform from pale white to pastel pink. It reminded me of Oklahoma. Lately almost all sunsets remind me of winter in Oklahoma. This time of year, we woke up looking forward to seeing snow on the ground.

In Las Vegas, it seldom snows in the valley. Mount Charleston has gotten snow so the skiers are happy. I miss the snow, but not enough to drive to Mount Charleston to play in it. I'd rather use the gas for something else, perhaps a trip to the mall to buy chocolate.
