Traffic

Traffic zooming by coming and going as the evening goes by turning into night. The breeze is cool coming through the windows while riding in traffic.

Lights are red under the evening sky. Sitting and waiting for the change to move on to the destination that waits before us. Moving again while aromas travel in the wind. The hum of motors, and the smell of exhaust is enough to make a person sick.

Dark falls and the sounds of the night are restless. Ducks quacking at boats for disturbing their slumber. Fish splash on top of the water to take a cool breath of the night air. Stars twinkle bright as the moon shines light through the haze around it. Light waves of clouds grace the sky in the distance as fog makes its way across the lake to the bank.

Traffic comes through on four wheels of metal with heads covered in the night. It was a fright! Silent and quietly traffic came through, but not for long it was silent again. We had it all alone. Ending the journey at close of the night, we had fun and everything was alright.

The lake in the day.
