Fog

Authors Note: Fog was a motif that was powerful to me in the story. Every time it was mentioned the scene became dark and evil. The fog symbolized darkness and questions. When there was no fog there always was happiness. I used fog in my poem to show darkness in the way the author did in Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.

Everything was bright

Happy and solitude

Loving and cherished

Disquietude took over

A glooming fog filled the air

It touched every soul

It killed every blossom

Blocked the Sunlight

Its iniquity killed life

And killed all hope

For people

Were no Longer happy

I walked out the street

Unable to see

The fog blurred streets

And signs, even orchards

The street was dead

Not a sound was heard

My boots became boisterous

They became an itch to my ear

The fog was in layers

From my toes

 to the top of the buildings

But then something amazing

Occurred.

The fog, became lighter

No longer grey

Silver, even white

Color emerged

The sky was now visible

And then all a sudden

The sun began to peek

The light touched everywhere

All souls emerged

And happiness transpired
