Misty Mornings

Fog blankets the world,
a soft, grey hug.
I press my nose to the cool window,
My breath clouds the glass.

The familiar becomes mysterious,
shapes blurred and distant.
Trees are ghosts,
houses are shadows.

My coffee mug warms my hands,
The steam rises to join the mist outside.
I imagine it seeping through the walls,
adding to the dreamy haze.

In this cocoon of quiet,
time feels stretched and slow.
The day hasn't quite begun,
and anything seems possible.

I wrap my cardigan tighter,
a shield against the chill,
and settle into my favourite chair
to watch the world wake up.

I wrap my cardigan tighter,a shield against the chill,and settle into my favourite chairto watch the world wake up
