The Sea of Fog

The Sea of Fog - A Poem Inspired by the famous painting "Wonderer Above Sea of Fog" by Caspar David Friedrich



Mystic mountains all around, 
As a sea of fog is abound

The wanderer looks to the view ahead,
Standing tall, no fear or dread

The sea of fog, a dream-like sight,
Only letting in just enough light
 
Mystic energy all surrounds,
Spiritual sense can be found

The wanderer cannot see what’s below,
The choices there cannot be seen so

The sea of fog hides what’s down so deep,
To uncover the truth you must take a leap

This painting so nice, so full of wonder,
An adventure awaits for those who go under
