Early morning mist
Ethereal blanket
Calming souls before the rush of day
Quiet silken shadow of the morning
Hushed the world before the hectic play
Sleepy rooftops
Peering through the silver
People stirring from their cosy beds
Find a world so steeped in meditation
Silence slowly circulates their heads
Step so gently
Do not disturb the morning
Let the soundless airflow have its way
Soon a sun with warming rays will scatter
Morning mist
Come back another day
