The Fog Was So Thick I Could Hardly See The Trees
Thank you Frederick for the awesome photo that inspired this quirky poem
Please check out my friend Frederick’s awesome photos and poems on the RB
The Fog Was So Thick I Could Hardly See The Trees
The air was very still there was not even a breeze
It looked as though I was standing in some magical land
I pictured that I was a drum major marching in a band
As we would march toward the trees the fog started to lift
We would march so slowly since marching bands are not quick
I would be so proud in my uniform of gold and blue
Performing for everyone and especially for you
You would look at me with a smile so bright and kind
I would know that you thought that I looked mighty fine
But as I awakened from my dream to reality
I realized the fog had lifted and there was only me

Imagination a wonderful trait, so well presented picture and words, As adults we tend to lose touch with this wonderful tool we have all been given.
Thank You Sally
Sally Omar replied
Thank you so much…this was very strange..when Fred first posted
his picture..I thought this is something that can be so romantic
but all I could see was a marching band..and I went back to this
photo so many times..but it was the only picture in my head and
I decided to go with it…Thank you again..Sally xxoo
Frederick
Wonderful, Sally. Unexpected but brilliant all the same xxx
Sally Omar replied
Fred, When I sat down to write it..I was planning on something
so completely different and I started to type and all of a sudden
it was a marching band…I thought it was going to be a romantic
scene…but my mind has a mind of it’s own (did that make any
sense?) Love & Hugs, Sally xxoo
