fog to hope

February 25th, 2008 | General
on this day in… 2004… 2003… 2002

fog, just plain fog,
barely freezing and then not at all.
whiffs of warm air float by my nose
tantalizing scents - the spices of spring.
There will still be slush and mud and gray days, but
for today the fog burns off, and there is
sun and birdsong and hope.
