The fog creeps in on silent feet
Cloaking the darkness in defeat
Things change again in that respect
And you cannot seem to connect.
Things never are what they seem at night
But the fog spreads chaos just in spite
It changes sounds that you hear
And makes your heart beat in fear.
Fog has a strange effect
And opens the world a new prospect
It makes you fear what you cannot see
But yet it is exciting just to be.
After you are tired and can barely stay awake
And you feel like your heart is gonna break
Then you wonder if you are going to weep
That’s when the Lord lets you fall asleep
And so the creepy fog had its way with you
You know in your heart there is nothing you can do
But the Lord always has a plan for everything
And He makes the creepy fog go creeping.
” Creepy Fog ” ,is an entertaining work making effective use of a rhyming scheme that adds to its overall impact.My own impression is that the poem’s qualities and lightness of touch make a most suitable for school age children.
Thank you Louis. I always enjoy your insight into all the poems.
