WHEN THE SUN STOOD STILL


The autumn equinox is past, but once upon a time, the days were very, very long and we walked up a little hill to watch the sunset on the longest day of the year. The trees in the city were green then, and the grasses were green.  And there was still a little bit of snow in the mountains, though there is more now.  Matt still lived here, and we all looked golden, and our shadows were very long.  There were a lot of people up there in the hills that night.
