Fog Poems - Poems about Fog

The Fog of Lost Souls
In shadows thick where silence weeps, The fog rolls in—its secret keeps. A mournful veil, a breathless moan, It swallows light, leaves hearts alone. This cursed ground, where echoes stay, Of laughter lost and minds astray. A prison forged from sorrow’s seam, Where memories drift like half-formed dreams. No stars to guide, no dawn to see, Just whispers caught in memory. Each step you take,...

Misty Morning's Whisper
Her warm breath fogs the pane. She draws a mis-ty veil. Footsteps fade like lost ghosts. Her voice melts in the rain. Dreams ache inside her chest. Hope hums of might-have-been. Contest: SOME KIND OF MISTY Poetry Contest Sponsor: Nette Onclaud Date: July 5, 2025...

Premium Member FAMILY FOG AND FIREFLIES
When what’s happening in our country and the world gets me down When I don’t know where the sad news will come from next…or when… I look to my family and nature to help lift me up again. Last night as I sat in a rocking chair on the porch of our cabin in the trees and again this...

The Petals Hurt Too
Each petal cuts me in my sleep— you call it soft, but I bleed every time I touch it. The mirror doesn’t cry with me anymore. Only the fog stays. It hums like a swallowed scream. ...

Shattered Coral
Blood of gems crosses the tides a fractured tremor of a weary river fog of marrow diluted by tremors spines chained to the edges of a coral sinking deep stones upon a shore that quivers and the body hears only a wave mute that carves....

Premium Member Maybe I don't understand love, an enigma that entangles my soul like a thick fog
Maybe I don't understand love, an enigma that entangles my soul like a thick fog, For in the moment I think I've found that person, reality slips through my fingers, When I feel like I love, it turns out to be just an illusion, a fleeting dream that unravels, And when I trust and love with all my...

Premium Member Ridin' Through the Fog
The fog sits heavy on broken ground, Snow lays light where the stubble’s browned. No sun, just hush and hoofbeat slow, And breath that drifts like chimney smoke. The cows stand scattered, heads hung low, Dark shapes caught in a pale gray glow. I ride out quiet, don’t make a sound... They know this hat, this horse, this ground. A calf’s come early,...

Fog and Water
Fog over the inlet until water and air waltz together. colds ears muffled by the dank air. Grebes and Coots colonize this tributary. The ocean is close you can feel the tidal pull of it the immensity of it, even through the thick haze it seems to tug at my small boat. I hear now, the distant screaking of coastal gulls. Trawling fingers in the dark...

As He Disappears into the Fog
As he disappears into the fog, forgiveness fills my soul. I feel the love come back to me, my heart growing hundredfold. As he disappears into the fog, I feel anxiety leave. I feel an astounding sense of peace overflowing in me. As he disappears into the fog, the bitterness is suddenly gone. The joy and laughter I've now found...

Premium Member February Fog
There is in February fog an eventuality that must befall us all. As if the earth were vanishing, or one were going blind, the fog sets in, absorbing all that is familiar – trees, houses, roads, sky . . . And then the windows – like our eyes – glaze over gray, and what was once so clear, always there, we can no...
