⚓ In the luminous hour between day and night, James sits on a harbor wall and watches the boats come home, one by one, as the lights begin to appear.The harbor is at its most beautiful at dusk, when the light is neither day nor night but something soft and full of possibility. James has been coming to this wall every evening for as long as he can remember. The fishing boats arrive first, heavy with their catch, followed by the sailboats catching the last breeze, and finally the small rowboats making their way home. As each boat enters the harbor, lights begin to appear — navigation lights, shore lights, the warm gold of windows in the town. James loves the way they multiply, like stars being born, until the harbor is ringed with a crown of gold and the water is a mirror of fire. A gull keeps him company, and the evening star hangs low in the west.CHAPTERS:00:00 - The Hour Between Day and Night01:10 - The Stone Wall and Its Warmth02:20 - The Boats Coming In03:30 - Fishing Boats Heavy with Their Catch04:35 - Sailboats Catching the Last Breeze05:40 - The Lights Beginning to Appear06:50 - Stars Being Born, One by One07:55 - The Gull on the Wall08:55 - The Sky Layered with Colour09:30 - Walking Home Along the QuayA 10-minute bedtime story of harbor lights, evening calm, and the simple beauty of watching the world settle into night.
