Mornings Gray
Mist
The mist of morn is damp
and gray,
a cooling down period it
seems to say.
It can be a time of
reflection, but promise too,
as the sun's light will
make things new.
It may be this same gray
mist that can fill one's heart,
with a slight coolness, as
tender feelings depart
all the while waiting for
the promise of new found dreams,
that same bright light and
a special gleam.
There's a tune in each of
us, some may say absurd
in the form of a melody or
a written word.
But, it will often
determine the exact position
we surrender too, when we
take the time to listen.
As the mist is lifted and
there's light as before,
it's like watching a wave
roll unto the shore,
then receding, taking with
it all that is old,
leaving behind a wealth
far greater than gold.
