Foggy, Foggy Dew
Virginia Salter

Oh, the foggy, foggy dew
clouds my visions well of you
it mists the trees and eaves
as I tempt pull up sleeves

I could walk a hundred miles
across high desert isles
I could swim the sea of green
in a faded winter scene

I’d still not know the more
of what my life was for
yet I’ll search night and day
for the truth of life convey

And until my dying day
I shall seek what I’m to say
in a ministering word
of the promises I’ve heard

I was reading this on my coffee break and those last lines sure felt good!

"When red-haired girls scamper like roses over the rain-green grass,
and the sun drips honey."

Thanks, Kathleen, glad you had a coffee break, too. If I can make someone feel good, then I've done a lot.

VAS - words you have written, I have read. Especially the last line.
