Early Morning On a Mississippi Highway

There's a thick fog over the trees 
A fine Mist in the air 
A subtle yet calming breeze 
And the Temperature is fair 
The grass is heavy with Dew 
The sky's an overcast color of gray 
Vehicles are sporadic and few 
its a beautiful yet gloomy day on this Mississippi highway

You've hit "beautiful yet gloomy" right on the head Ettie, nicely done. I can picture it just as you've described, eerie and calming
