A Sea Drenched Mist

Today, all is landscaped by mist.
North, South, East, and West
                all are one floating sea.

The hedgerows are reefs,
a familiar tree-line
seems like a gray cliff face.
My own face
feels as if swept over
                          by a tidal spume.

Now a kitchen radio is turned on,
a truck blasts its air-horn, a child shouts,
and as if the sun were only now roused
to scatter ocean dreams
with a newly rinsed
                        and blotting wind.
