A Golden Glow

I awoke to a light of yellow washing the room with its faint light. Lifting my head and peering out the window, high in the sky, above the mango tree, I saw the source a golden moon. Although it looked like a harvest moon in color, it was high in the sky and would not set yet for a few hours. I watched as its color deepened slightly to an orangey hue. The moon slipped behind the mango tree; fruits that would soon bear the moons color in their juicy insides now hanging green from the branches. I thanked the Lord for his display of beauty and relinquished myself to sleep. That morning the sun rose like a ball of fire and the sky took on an ethereal glow so unusual that others commented on it to me.
