The Covering Mist

The moon gave silent shadows to our form As we lay beneath its splayed softer light The time spent is instinctual and warm As mist from the lake engulfs us from sight The depth of suspended droplets transform And roll across us in sheltered delight To be covered by moisture's misty air Leaves a mystery,no trace of us there Contest Through The Mist Frederic Parker 8/19/14

The moon gave silent shadows to our form...I like the singular there, Frederick; just one form. Lovely poem for the mist theme. Congratulations.

Dear Frederic, This feeling of peace in a hidden environment is eloquently expressed here. I've felt that way when fishing 25 miles offshore. You can dance naked on the deck and no one sees you but God. I sense a deep passion between the two people in your poem. Sending winning wishes your way! Love, Carolyn
