Notebook Pages Become Soggy

The sun rises on the distant horizon
Sending rays through gray clouds
Tinging them to a somber cobalt
Waiting to shine red and proud

The sound waves vibrate from crickets
As they rub their hind legs
They have double-fold in numbers
Spread like whisky bootleg_

The fog drapes its long tenacles
Across the hill and vale
It coats all the trees, shrubs, and homes
Spreads across like bride's veil

Dampness penetrates every nook
Reaches within crevices
Notebook pages become soggy
Wet with fog's devices

The imagery in this makes me think of Tim Burton for some reason! I think it's the tentacular fog and it spreading like a veil, its a sensational motif I wish I had of thought of myself! Please keep writing great poems, I look forward to reading more!
