was the 13th year in an ongoing project, dedicated to the observation of the sun at every crossing of the horizon and to sharing the awareness of that moment with others (i.e. ring a bell). This year's invitation was for others to witness and share a sunrise or sunset each month. With the onset of covid19, came the mandate to shelter in place. Knowing that we would be at home each evening, we decided to ring a LOUD bell every sunset, marking the day's end to anyone within earshot.

Sunset poem on my 70th - Evangel King

Sunset poem on my 70th
This very afternoon
In the heart of bloom
Comes
The sweetest desire
So secret
The garden
6 feet apart
No touch
All honored
We dance
Spinning
Each heart’s desire
As one
This very sunset
Ringing out
Day for Night’s
Stealthy return
Earth our home
Spinning
Brings Day
Brings Sunset
Brings Night
Brings Sunrise
Again, again, again …
