Mist Listening to love songs, aching for one to love this night. But flowers still grow in the moonlight and life goes on. The window gets misted; the fog rolls in. and I wonder when will it lift and the clearness of day settle upon the earth and me? So for now, I watch and learn, and hope, and yearn, and know that there are flowers beyond the mist and life goes on. |

I can feel the longing in every word.... We have to keep believing that love is just around the corner.....some times though ....it´s a long,sweeping bend! Ray |

Beautiful, Debby. If we can turn pain into good poetry, it has served at least one purpose. Years ago, I used to drive to Pietermaritzburg (about 90 kilometres ±50 miles), once a week in the evening to go to Scottish Country Dancing. On the way back there was often mist on the road. I loved the feeling of being encapsulated in the mist in my car (the car I had then was Vernon, the Volkswagen Variant) and no deadline to get home by - the babysitter got paid more the longer she was there - and "the peace that came dropping slow" à la WB Yeats. I could drive as slowly as the mist required and sing or recite poetry and nobody could see or hear me while I was wrapped in this silent white protective blanket. - Owl |

Hi graeshine2006, Cleaning the windows after the mist was a tough job for me. Poetry comes little easier. Nice write. Prasad "Hardwork pays in the long run" |
