~through the fog ~

The AWESOME Roy Barry posted this stunning art Fogbound Benches
and drew forth these words from me!

Chookas! ♥

~through the fog ~ belongs to the following groups:

"Exceptional Ekphrasis", "Poetry and Beautiful Women" , All Around the Styles, All Things Poetic, Artistic, Philosophical, Live, Love, Dream: , Melbourne & Victoria, Old farts of redbubble, Shades of Grey, The Healing Journey, The Patchwork , Up & Coming Writers and WMG

There’s no cheering the game on today
The nannies have wheeled all their pushers away
Not even a nosy dog chances to stray
Out in this eerie fog

No child runs past with mates on their heels
No old people rugged up and pushed in their wheels
No lovers on rugs surreptitiously feels
Pretending to hug in the sun

Tis a cold winter’s morning and damp is the air
Birds are still hiding their wings and their prayer
My feet make no noise as they climb the stone stair
Not my poise but the muffling fog

It is quiet and lonely on this blanketed path
Only fogbound benches witness me pass
I yearn for the warmth of a cheery hearth
When I return to my family’s love
