Tonight is so beautiful
The fog is thick
And the air absolutely still
Only a car or two can be heard
in the distance
No planes fly tonight
Few lights pollute the darkness
The crickets are silent
The possum and raccoon have stayed home
A hoot owl speaks twice then says no more
My puppy sits faithfully with me
She too is still like the air
The air is crisp like a walk-in freezer
at the grocery
But not cold
I could sleep on this log tonight
There is magic in the air
Blessed be
I have found calm and peace
After having a child yell at me
For three hours
