Notes About The Poem

Written April 19 2026 for Nette Oncloud's contest Six and Seven 

Fog in those Eyes

Eyes seen as the windows of soul
Can be open or uninviting and closed
Can be blind yet the mind knows
How to enlighten with wisdom and hope
Fog in one’s life lack of growth
Fog in eyes lost goal left exposed

When there is fog in the eyes, right vision is impaired. Well written.
