Mist

sorenbarrett

 A slithering fog with cottony stealth envelopes the sleeping trees constricting the forest in its undulating misty grasp. 
It swallows colors  covering fragrances in a shed  scale vapor of dewdrop trails.
Engorged and satiated it crawls up the mountainside to sleep until awakened by the hunger of another day.

          Wonderfully described sorenbarrett. You brought this mist to life with its movement and blotting out of the landscape. Done in such a creeping manner, it can take us by surprise.

            Beautifully done dear sorrenbarret, now I'm thinking out loud this just has to be the landscape of Brazil right? I've been to Florida not such picturesque as Brazil 🀣

              Can’t help but entertain a notion that this is more than just a poetic description of a mist. It is smooth, subtle and very atmospheric. πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ™πŸ»πŸ•Š

                Perceptive, everything that meets the eye is not what it appears. Thanks for the read and comment

                  The mist not only comes to life in your rich imagery, Soren, the shape of the poem actually looks, at least to me, like a mist settling in. Really enjoyed this. Well done, my friend! πŸŒΉπŸ‘ An easy fave for me.

                          Hungry fog. It blinds the world of sense. Like a starving bear before his hibernation.
