the heaviness of the fog draped over Bayou Lafourche looked as though I would be able to put my words in writing upon it it seemed to me the oppressive fog was fighting against the coming sunrise its grayness appeared to tighten up in a sad kind of way knowing the sun would win ©November 12, 2013 / Jerry Pat Bolton ~*~ My fake plants died because I did not pretend to water them. ~*~ |

Mood setting...great. In the end each is important and plays it's part. Nothing like an early morning mist rising above a mountain lake...like a slow lifting of a veil - then...the majesty of the mountains bathed in the golden rays of the Sun. Darn, now I have to take a trip to the Rockies...lol. CG |
