Mystical

This poem was inspired by the recent fog we had settled over Seattle:

Mystical

Whisper of sprig of branch
And twig lace veil
Of virgin mist draped in traces
Of grace like a mantle
Of promise on a bride
Watching for the unveiling
Vows of the Son:
Now I see but hazily;
Then… in face-to-face
Twinkle of eye.
