It is evening, and the time for the flowers to close their petals.
Give me leave to sit by your side, and bid my lips to do the work
that can be done in silence and in the dim light of stars.
(from “The Gardener” by Rabindranath Tagore)
I hope all have time to sit in silence under the stars this holiday time, before being driven indoors by the midges and mosquitoes!
