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!
