Opaque Morning

She rides low and ghostly close to the ground giving the streetlamps that dot the neighborhood opaque ethereal halos Where the skyline touches her shrouded cover she mystically wears a peached-tinged glow that’s pleasingly mellow She obscures familiar landmarks with her misty morning dew laying a damp blanket on a Spring morning She is the sunrise fog and today I welcome her beautiful unearthly picturesque view. Grateful eyes viewing

I agree with all you describe Deb, the fog has an ethereal shroud that wraps everything in its path. Love your wonderful descriptions in this great poem. Luv, Eliz

Hauntingly serene and silent the earthly cloak appeared. As the angel walked among the breeze, she forgot what she had feared. The emptiness that filled the night. No longer lived in morning's light.
