Texture Tuesday - Story

Linking up with Kim for this weeks' Texture Tuesday.

textured with 'lifeisgood'

A blanket of fog envelopes me.  I feel the weight of it despite its lightness.  Always grey, always somber, as though in mourning.  It appears desperate, clingy and sad as though not wanting to suffer alone.

As the sun reaches out to console it, it makes a hasty retreat and finds a new dark, damp corner in which to dwell.

  1. Mysterious and haunting. Your description of fog retreating to its damp dwelling place is sad, yet so evocative. Your image brings all these feelings alive.

    1. Initially when I wrote these words I was focusing on the external fog but after talking to my husband I realized that it actually went much deeper than that and was infact a reflection of my own inner fog too.

  2. Your image and words match beautifully. Here in Maine, close to the coast there can be fog that lasts sometimes for weeks-oft in June or July when I feel I should be basking in the sun. Some years it is just intermittent.
    I also know about the fog inside-and how certain days can feel gray and difficult....I get it.
    Hoping this is a sunny day for you where the sky and mood is bright and clear.

  3. Very good. Poetic. The intro to a book or movie could not be done better.

  8. Wonderful and powerful - I feel that fog today, in fact there was so much fog (figuratively speaking) that I hit a wall. It's just a good thing tomorrow is a new day! : )
