cliff’s edge
She walked across the gentle cliff and glided over the soft gray grass. The sun was just setting and stained the sky in a warm yellow while the rest of the world slowly grew blue. Iris took a few more steps until she reached the cliff’s edge. Overlooking the chasm was a town covered by a light fog. Through the mist, Iris could see that the lights were beginning to turn on. Oddly, the world under the cliffs seemed eternally dark and full of gloom. Up there, the sky’s brightness created an everlasting feeling of peace and shalom.
Sigh
She would have to venture down anyways, so she bid the sky a farewell and started down the cold dark steps.
The sun was setting, but it was the start of a new day.
