Superior's Split Rock Bay Fog

Fog rolled in over
my knees

Sending a cool tingling right up
my arms

Refreshing my thoughts

A smile
aware of its origin

Leapt from my soul through
upturned lips

Sharing joy with deep blue bells
yawning about me

Tall lungwort

Breathing the same life giving

Moist fog

The same

Life giving

Moist

Fog
