Clinger

The thick damp fog came in a rush
Coats trees, small shrubs, and grass
Vision limited, time slower
Or is time wrapped or trapped

The weighted air holds roosters' crow
And Sparrows' chirp lingers
Dust damp wet hardly leaves the ground
Weighted thoughts now clinger

Dear Sara, When a cover of fog appears, things do seem to go slower. Perhaps it's because we can't see the sun moving across the sky. Quite an astute observation, my friend. This is headed to my faves. Excellent! Love, Carolyn
