A new blog to contain answers to prompts

Since my old blog "Everyday Canvas Open in new Window. became overfilled, here's a new one. This new blog item will continue answering prompts, the same as the old one.


Cool water cascading to low ground
To spread good will and hope all around.

Prompt:
Can you give human qualities to the night. Have fun!

---------

Night always accepted and loved herself. No joke! I believe this has to do with her understanding herself well.

Night is honest, too, and if you ever meet her and ask her about your troubles and worries, she'll tell you the truth in her gentle voice, but she is never like those who tell harsh truths in the name of being honest, since Night is compassionate and supportive.

I know this because I've been observing her for years, and with me, years abound.

Yesterday, again, I didn't turn on the lights. I wanted to see Night slip into my world like a quiet guest, brushing past the curtains. She gave me a hug, and then, she stepped out, humming lullabies to our restless street. And, eventually, the lights of my neighbors dimmed one by one, I suppose, together with their worries.

Kind hearted that she is, I heard Night come near my window, again. I stayed put as she leaned in gently to whisper to me, "Rest now, I'll keep watch."

I nodded, but still kept on looking at her as she gathered the stars around her shoulders, even if she knew Dawn would chase her away. But Night didn't mind, ever. She carried her peace with her as she walked on, taking care of the world with her calm, steady heart.
