Damp Evening

After a misty rain, dampness consumes Many steps go upwards from the sidewalk They are quite wet from the water that blooms All from the sky the rain begins to talk The wetness is cool, a feeling that stuck After a misty rain, dampness consumes The air glows by some lamps in the mist struck The rain billows in the night fog that plumes People out all want to go in their rooms As the weather conditions are quite sad After a misty rain, dampness consumes The odd sight is eerie and shows off bad People cannot see far ahead of them The feel of this night brings a sense of doom Top of the stairs where it is surely dim After a misty rain, dampness consumes

My friend I just came back from an excursion on the top of the mountain near Athens about 4200 feet height where I lived your poem. It seems that you have described the beautiful experience I had! Needless to say it was marvelous as your poem had foretold!
