My alarm went off in the dark this morning. I awoke in wonder about what on earth was going on, until it dawned on me. It hadn't yet dawned outside.
The edges of winter are almost upon us. With her long fingers, she silently closes in on each end of the day.
As I ventured down for a shower, I could see the warm glow of the street lights through the window on the stairs. Another reminder that you're up before nature intended.
As Thomas Fuller said: "It is always darkest just before the Day dawneth".
