Last Light

Carry on Tuesday #56 ~ This week our prompt is the opening words from Salman Rushdie’s book The Enchantress of Florence:
In the day’s last light......
SOOC Sunday #83
~
Whispers
In the day's last light

Knowing whispers
In the last day's light

Vacuumed chaos
In the last light of day

Shivering silence
In the last light
