Klar som guld
Language: Swedish (Svenska)
Klar som guld står horisontens rand under en himmel, tung av vilande moln. Klar som guld drar den sin fasta ring runt ett hav av mörknande dyningar rört. Gråa, tunga vatten och luft och moln; klar som guldhimlens yttersta rand. Havet sorlar... Kvällens svartnade skär tecknas i sot mot en synrand - klar som guld.
