Child of the Fog

The fog of San Francisco is like a child you hold dear.
It brought you many smiles and ofttimes a lonely tear.
When you don't see it anymore, comlete sunlight you abhor.
Fog is so much like your warm lover's sweetest kiss.
And when gone, oh, how my, how sorely it is missed.
Once baptized by the fog, you belong to it forever.
Nothing can replace it~ no, not now, not ever!

Many see fog as a negative but love the way you have turned it into a positive, feels like a soft warm protective blanket, Emilia : ) x

Sorry you never got to see it. But, Tom, at least you were here. Intoxicating, it is! It rolls in somewhere after sunset. I lived in the Marina, which is two blocks from SF Bay. It's so thick, the streets get wet! Thanks for the comment. Hugs, Pangie xx
