Before the Fog

Before the fog,
my world was full
of light and color;
the promise of the sun
loomed steadily on my horizon,
reflecting deep into my being.
Before the fog,
love danced in my heart
as the shorebirds dance on the beach,
and peace paddled gently
across the surface of my mind.
But when the fog rolled in
I lost sight of everything,
lost my bearings and my faith.
Thank you
for bringing back the light.
