Last rays

The days are short,
The sun a spark
Hung thin between
The dark and dark.

You have found a guardian of light and dark here.

startling encounter with this resolute figure, like some rebel chief...he seems to be peeking over from the dark side of the hill...V

Correction: this is a sheep, not a goat. Thanks, Johnny.

I do miss Updike. Wonderful lines to accompany this inspiring image of light play in the far left and on the goat's head and horns.
