The Fog So Thick

~ No sun, no moon, no stars above appear this murky day The fog so thick, you need a knife to cut you on your way Though as I drive within the mist where I can hardly see I still take time to make a wish that you were here with me For in these lower hanging clouds I search my thoughts to find The one who is more beautiful, so clear within my mind And now as I just travel on I see the perfect view For every morning’s loveliness starts when I think of you ~ Just another hallmark card poem which is obvious most of you are tired of

You get my weather one day earlier; two days of mist and fog. Without seeing the moon and stars, the nights are filled with only emptiness...incomplete.

I do and hopefully I can send something a little nicer your way tomorrow. Thanks so much Lin.

Nicely done, Chris. We get a lot of fog near the cost. Glad to see you so active here. Best wishes, Carolyn

It's just that time of year in the South when the arrival of dawn's warmth mixes with the night's coolness.

We have had it for the past two days, I am ready for it to leave. Thank you Carolyn.

Aw, I sure like the clever twist you gave to "to cut you on your way" (via a knife through the fog). Hallmark, Schmallmark. Three cheers for Chris Green. (And not Chinese cheers either! :). Cheers, Gershon

Phew, I'm glad it's not Chinese cheers, I couldn't afford the tariffs. : ) Thanks so much my friend.

We never tire of your positive romantic words Chris. I live at the 12 hundred foot level on a hillside overlooking the sea. We are often in the mist of low clouds and it reminds me of when I used to fly and it feels like home. Fog is dangerous to drive in but it has its own feeling of enchantment as in your lovely poem. Good morning my friend. Have a great day! xxoo

Wow Connie..."at the 12 hundred foot level on a hillside overlooking the sea" No wonder your poetry is always so beautiful. I'm sitting in a grey office with a grey desk and a fake plant on the credenza. :) Yep, it's foggy. : ) Thank you Connie.

Hallmark sells a lot of cards, would be a great opportunity, mushy sentimentality is still in high demand and you are a romantic superstar...I never tire of your writing Chris! Good morning!

Wow, thank you John. That means a lot coming from a talented writer like yourself. From one superstar to another...I appreciate you my friend.

Thank you so much Sandy. The fog is definitely a challenge to drive in but when your mind has something beautiful to focus on, it seems so much easier. :)

I drove in the fog this morning and did not feel as cheerful about it as this poem makes it seem for you.

It's all in what you think about while driving. : ) Thanks so much Caren.
