so unlikely

       your breath on the lens will lessen,

it’s an uneven reminder that,

 

- you’re the only one

 

Out of focus

Thought provoking poem, Brandy. I guess sometimes folks look through fog when they don't want to see.

There is no beating round the bush here, Brandy! Although we try to give a person the benefit of the doubt, the situation is often too clear to do that! Probably such people are too self-centered to realize. ~ Warm regards and hugs my friend. // paul

Dear Paul, both statements hold so much truth. I've found those dealing with the ' self centered ' syndrome are on a different playing field. One, I'm not wishing to interact with. You and your thoughts are appreciated. Thank you for being here, for being you. :) Hugs, Brandy

'-Thoughts I can see clearly - some choose to look only through fog . We are the only ones who can determine are lives here on earth, and like it or not we do have to live with it, You see clearly that we have choices in life if we stay focused they will be beautiful, sensitive and romantic.Well penned dear .

So true, Jennifer. We are in control of our choices, and with that being said, we're also in control of the lens/or mirrors we fog up. Never create a cloudy view for someone else, unless you're willing to make the path clear when you're done. Your lovely comment is appreciated, my sweet friend. Many wonderful blessings to you. :) Hugs, Brandy

Brandy, I agree with you. So much in life is a choice! We must make it and then enjoy or endure the consequences! Your wonderfully romantic style lends itself to this poetic message and as usual, it's extremely beautiful!! I can see clearly !! Happy Saturday xxoo

Mike, and now I agree with you. Life is filled with many choices. While others fog up the lens refusing to leave, my choice is to stay focused. It seems to be working for me, and I am enjoying the view. :) So sweet of you to say that my style is romantic, and my thoughts hold a message within. My heart is smiling. Happy Saturday to you too ! :) Hugs, Brandy

In a “simple thought” and simple sentence, resides profound depth. Your statement challenges the reader to take a deeper, introspective look at oneself, to investigate their perspective, values and beliefs; to reframe or adjust their perspective to better “see” through the “fog”. I found this statement tremendously interesting and contemplative. Well done.

Edward, you're able to read between the lines and understand the meaning that's hidden within. I truly appreciate you noticing, and even more so, for expressing it so beautifully with your comment. I can tell that you're able to see me and moments clearly, those around you. Thank you, my dear friend. My best to you. :) Hugs, Brandy

Staying in a fog is never good. Being mysterious in a romantic way, is a good thing. Thank you Victor, for sharing how you see this. You and your thoughts are appreciated. :) Hugs, Brandy

Some can get misplaced in the mist.. When I see fog, I always turn on my fog lights in my car.. deep few lines in your poem... I hope we all remain focused or go to the opticians.. That normally helps..

There's so many ways to ' see,' indeed. A light truly does help, when in a fog. That goes for seeing others. Many seem to enjoy staying out of focus. I will never understand that. Thank you Silent One, for your lovely comment. My best to you. Hugs, Brandy

Many wear them ! Seeing things as they really are, many fail to do. Many choose to stay in a fog, on purpose. Thank you, Arlo. I appreciate you and your thoughts. :)

Some want to throw stones. To borrow from an old cliche, they live in glass houses. Some look for beauty, others revel in muck. Many of us see your inner beauty through your poetry. Poetry Soup wouldn't be the same without Brandy Nicole. Thanks for gracing us with your poetry, grace and elegance

Those that enjoy making the lens foggy, have already made their choice to see things the way they want to. Sad and wrong, all at the same time. So kind of you to say, Tommy ! I know you and many others can see me clearly. My heart is smiling. You're very welcome, and thank you for being here, for being you.

So many choose to look only through fog unfortunately, too reluctant to see the colors .. i prefer colors and whats beyond the fog. Beautifully woven and delivered dear brandy. I especially love “ your breath on the lens will lessen, it’s an uneven reminder that, - you’re the only one” brilliant! Pleasure reading your work: sending you light:

Dear Ink, you're able to find the positive within, and to someone like me, that's wonderful in so many ways. ( I prefer colors too ) We live in a world where many try to keep the lens foggy. Remember to always stay focused, the best you can, anyway. I appreciate you and your lovely comment. So kind of you to share your favorite lines within. My best to you, my dear friend. :) Hugs, Brandy
