Fog
✺
I’ve stumbled on the side
of twelve misty mountains.
—Bob Dylan
~
In the presence of eternity, the mountains are as transient as the clouds.
—Robert Green Ingersoll
~
It was as though
the air had dreamed
houses and steeples and trees
out of its own shadowy substance
fantastically.
—Florence Edsall
~
After fifty years of tracking clouds
I’ve become cold rain upon my life.
How odd to see the mist so clearly.
—Braided Creek
~
So I'm packing my bags
for the misty mountains.
—Led Zeppelin
