Misty Beauty

The mist is creeping through the trees
and swirling round my feet
in the silence of the dawning day I stand and watch it come.

I welcome the feeling of the icy mist moving round my feet,
the first fine spray upon my face
as I greet the day once more.

I feel the joy within my soul as I see the new day dawn
to see the earth come out of the dark into the light of day.

Just a few short months ago I would not have stopped
and taken the time to appreciate this beauty
but now I know that each short day
must be enjoyed
lest we miss our chance to marvel
