Dusk to Dawn

Every eve when the sun meets the earth and the moon takes her place in the sky,

magic is spread across the land

and takes our minds to another realm.

A realm where wonderful and terrible things happen before our eyes,

untethered by the limits of our world.


Here, time moves differently.

From the moment the magic whisks us away from our bodies,

the speed of the hands on a clock slows nearly to a halt.

We spend only moments in this realm, saying hi to a lost loved one

or exploring an enchanted forest,

and yet our body has aged hours back on Earth.

It is a wonderful and mysterious way to time-travel,

jumping to the future by visiting this realm for only a short while.


And when our consciousness is ready to return to its body, the magic carries it home,

placing it back into its cage where it remains limited by the laws of our world

until its freedom returns.

Then the sun takes her place in the sky once more,

and the moon brings the magic away until the next eve settles

over the land.
