When Fogs Collide In a forest bent by breeze, blowing branches over leaves came a thump, thump, thump in the midnight. All gone was the starlight, even absent was the moonlight when a white fog glowed silent, slipping thru the trees. I stopped and froze from smiling ‘cause my fear did find beguiling how this eerie froth of floating grace, ejecta from some spectral place, could turn and twist in one ‘bout face and send my fears colliding. It pulsed a light and started thumping, made me feel like jumping, jumping off to where I could have been so I could leap right from my skin and sprout some wings to ride the wind and feel my fears subsiding. Closer came it creeping, creeping but to me it seemed as leaping like it had some ultra aim than scaring me out wits and brains, which now in shock I must proclaim it passed me thumping, thumping. I turned to catch one moment’s bliss. A second fog did merge. They kissed. Tears I cried yet not for me but for two fogs heard jubilantly who found in a universe of sky and mist each other on a forest plain like this and I felt prized over all above to have witnessed the thumpings of fogs in Love and realized that Love is the searching pulse of a heart that’s thumping for someone else and “just” when you think life is over or blue, you’ll turn and a thumping will be looking at you!

Unbelievable! Never considered such things, but then, I fear that I am bit of a dullard. Great job. |

Well, I was sitting on my front porch reading this and I started to feel chills that made me go inside. I guess I'm just a huge chicken. LOL! It definitely did its job with the eerie feel. I tried to relax at the ending, but couldn't after all those images and feelings. Enjoyed the ride. ![]() "How much is real? So much to question |

naymh, this has a truly beautiful ending. I still believe in love, yes I do! "so I could leap right from my skin and sprout some wings to ride the wind and feel my fears subsiding." I loved that verse. Michael |
