Through the window, outside world
Rained in mist.
My vision blurred by moisture from God's heart
and my mind settling
softly
in a strange new despair.

Outside world, so far away
I withdraw
and protect my soul.

Inside I wonder about the outside world
and hope starts to light up the outer edges of my heart.
Maybe the mist won't last forever
and maybe my world,
outside and inside
won't stay as somber as it seemed.

I hope so, Dawn, what a superb write about spleen and figurate mist, thanks for the beautiful share,

Exquisitely expressed, Dawn.  Sometimes we need a time apart to replenish our heart and soul.  Use it well and rest, and I am hope, pray and believe you will soon see the sunrise with new and happier eyes.
