The morning mist is hovering <br /> above the lake in veils of white <br />The beauty it is covering <br /> will soon be revealed by sunlight <br />The newly risen sun climbs high <br /> and will attain full majesty <br />The morning mist cannot defy <br />the sun’s supreme authority. <br />The scene takes on a clarity <br /> the colours showing clean and bright <br />The quiet waters easily <br /> reflecting back the strong sunlight. <br />Mists will return to hide the view <br /> when twilight falls. They always do. <br /> <br />1-Apr-08<br /><br />ivor or ivor.e hogg<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/temporarily-for-m-lady-tara/
