Twilight brings a mellow harmony to
Monhegan. The people, like the wind, subside into a peacefulness that sweeps
over the island like an Atlantic fog. The bright colors of day become
subdued in low key hues that get washed in glazes of dark blue grays. All
over the island, an increasing number of glowing rectangles of yellow amber
blast a burning hole into the approaching night. Flashlights dance along the
rocky rugged roads like fireflies as people find their way to and fro. Soon
the sounds of the island will diminish all except for the sea, with it's
eternally restless heartbeat.
