All is still, this strange hushed morn No song of birds, no traffic horn For mist has claimed the earth today Enshrouding all in softest grey Concealing shape and muffling sound Transforming, changing all around Weaving spells of black and white Disguising each familiar sight Revealing now an eerie grace A delicate shawl of silver lace Until at last, as day wears on I look, and find the mist has gone When waving leafy trees appear Out of the magic atmosphere I briefly mourn the ghostly hand That made the world a spellbound land |

Thanks everybody. We had one of those hazy days of August yesterday morning. And after a few hours the mist cleared away and it turned out to be one of those brilliant blue and clear late and mellow summer days The mist drifts in from the sea where I live, but very often it vanishes after an hour or two in the mornings.
