Listen to poem:
A charm of finches flew in circles disappearing entirely into surreal mist that now camouflaged the field. It seethed around rows of trees until all was invisible: Silence reigned, supernatural eerie feeling took over my thoughts. Fog's gradual encroachment over hills and cliffs: Swirling unearthly atmosphere. I felt distressed. My heart beat erratically, hours of inexplicable mystery shadows vanished as mist thickened. I trembled with an unnamed fear. The finches flew to safer gardens. Screeching gulls took their place. Across bay fog horns sounded, as confounded boats lost direction. Echoes resounded throughout paranormal night. Breaking dawn witnessed sea change. Soon I awakened from my stupor. Like curtain rising mist dissipated, leaving memories of that uneasy time.
