Gentle Mist

I was once walking through the wood,
in the mist, silenced hush.
Sky rocketed trees,
graced by the tender eve.

Quacks; quivers; splash; and whirl,
faded into a whisper.
Sky fell asleep; stars twinkled,
but dwindled to disappear.

Emptiness of the green,
I felt within,
and with a sweet touch, gently
the mist devoured me completely.
