A mist, rolling off the meadow

Carries a fragrance meant to please

Each droplet of water caresses

Every inch of the forest trees

Blanketing the russet leaves

Wrapping them in sweet embrace

The fog, though, soon will vanish

And the waking sun will grace

The colors, and beauty of nature

Once hidden in a veil of mist

Now drenched in dew, delighted

Aroused, by morning’s first kiss

Some say they have seen her

In the mist, by the lake

No reflection in the water

Just the trees, when they quake

Her presence is known

Though she’s never been found

Not even her footsteps

Never making a sound

But when the cold filters in

And the sun cannot shine

It is then that they claim

With the fog, she’s enshrined

Amidst the fog and full moon light

A house glows red with demonic delight

Terror reigns from deep within

Fills the air with a piercing din

Spirits roam the darkened grounds

Shrilling, shrieking, sounds abound

Horror shakes the shrouded land

That hides this fortress, once so grand

Haunting, against the black of night

Demons feast on earthly fright

img_3196What lies beyond the forest mist

Comes closer, if you whisper

Your breath, exhale, the frosty dew

As the air becomes much crisper

The path behind you disappears

No footsteps can you follow

Walking through the fog, just you

Staggering, as you wallow

In the stillness that surrounds

Stop now, inhale, and feel it

Winter’s frozen drops abound

In the fog that does conceal it

Mist lies quietly over starless skies
Swaddling the land in a cool damp air
Droplets filled with passing rain
Enveloped in fog that roams without care

Darkness ahead through shrouded passage
Shadows engulfing the light
Ethereal movements that send you astray
Across clouds enraptured by night

A brilliant sun awakens the dawn
And dissipates the lingering mist
Scattered softly on blades of grass
The quintessence of morning’s kiss
