Winter Mist Fall

An unusual mist fall
  comes every evening this winter.
A blend of warm cold rising from sky to earth,
   pressed down snugly by warm ocean breezes moving in.
A strange newness on the land
   in Christmas time 2015.
Time slips quickly away
   lost in gray overcast clouded dreams.
Twilight dances in on the horizon
   drawing down a waltz od dew and hazy fog.
'tween the night of christmas eve and day
   creeping towards the nerw year.
All begins to fade
   disappearing in the hours passing
awaiting the rise of the sun
   filled with warmth to heat the chilling
as the time of dreams are done
   but they will rise and sleep again
life clings to its promise and its hope
   that may lie unseen and hidden
lest it be known
   that tomorrow waits its turn.
