It’s early and it’s cold to skin This morning waking from the night The view outside is one of awe I wonder still if dream I sight Heavenly the haze I see A halo light near pushing through The ground around still sleeping be A gift, a blessing that I view I see a glint of daylight smile It peaks above the mist below And as I watch more for a while A magic lingers in its glow I like to stay and watch it move To see its changes with the day The way it crowds and curls about To hypnotise, then fade away Nature; what a wonder she To share her beauty and her view To let us find when not expect A morning smile and something new I wander to a hill and climb To gaze upon this sea of white Protruding are the taller trees And mountain tops that claim the right It is a view that takes the breathe And makes one think of beauties awe In memories room to take a place With all the gifts I’ve seen before |

I see a glint of daylight smile It peaks above the mist below And as I watch more for a while A magic lingers in its glow I like to stay and watch it move To see its changes with the day The way it crowds and curls about To hypnotise, then fade away So very beautiful... and as soft as the mist itself. *S* |

We had a morning mist much like that this a.m. and I was happy to watch blue sky come as the sun burned off the gray. You are right, though, it's magical, as it hugs the earth and softens all the shapes, drapes and shapeshifts around the mountains. Fall means jackets and sweatshirts for most of us as the weather cools, but for the mountains in the morning, it's those angel hair shrouds! I enjoyed this very much. Karen |

Dear Karen, lovely to get your reply my friend, nature is so wonderous that it often takes our breath away, how lucky we are to be here to see if but only a part of it. Thanks for your reply, always good to see you here. Rick |
