'tis Dawn Awaiting

A fog above the river is hovering Like a shroud of gray the bier covers Awaiting the glorious warming sun, Bringing fog like rising steam by noon Lifting the soul like a resurrection, But now, a chill over New River Gorge ‘Tis dawn awaiting the rafters’ call Adventurers will soon have a blast.

Thanks, Caren. A pretty common scene in the New River Gorge.
