Shore Line Fog

The cool evening breeze blends
With the warm beach air
And the thickening summer
Fog rolls over the shifting sands

The fog moves gently 
Floating over the retreating waves 
And the hushed empty shore,
Toward the hectic urban streets

Fog muffles the sound
Of life, as if 
Tucking us all in 
With a heavy winter comforter

Nature’s nighttime breath
Edges forward, encircles everything, 
Gently telling us 
Be still, Good Night
