Photo Essay Light Moves Upon Us: Tonya Tiday I lean back and exhale. Look out from the top of the summit into the vast distance, drawing in the last bit of warmth provided by the resting sun.   Rays of movement over the skin, face, and my emotions buried deep in the safe place.  Slowly releasing the breath as the sun moves behind and beyond. Where did the sweet time go of childhood wonder and music so rich with soul?  The passing of the light moves over us as our seasons of life take shape.   The Young and Old pass and at times,  cross. Wonderment. Questioning. Wishing. Dreaming. Letting Go of what was.  Then the young child that dances freely, giggling at shadows.  Now the young couple that say I Do and hold each other tightly.  The Gentleman of years gone by that ponders and questions the yesterdays.  I draw in my breath and see the images of life. The sun sets. And rest comes next.  16 Cenizo First Quarter 2017
