Slowly, mist rises above the lake.
Quietly, white strands greet
the soft glow of sunlight,
unafraid of its authority over the day.
For a few short moments water visits light.
Together they mingle in the morning silence,
occupying space between
what is above and what is below.

Together they play;
light through mist that dances
across the surface
of a shimmering lake.

Hi Nellie, Thanks for coming to my blog. Come back anytime. We have some things in common. Even though I am retired, I spent 25 years in Christian Education.. I was in the United Methodist Church.
I also love photography --so it sounds like we have some things in common. Hubby and I love to travel --but we go in our Prius and stay in the Holiday Inn Express... ha
Beautiful photos... Love the mist on the water... I need to check out more of your blog.
Hugs,
Betsy
Beautiful photos, and I love the poem that goes with them too. I especially like the last four lines. Very nice! Thank you for the visit to my blog today.
A nice moment to always catch and share
I love that kind of photo but too often don't get up early enough to capture the scene. Thanks for your comment on my blog. I haven't been to BSG in several years but it's an interesting area.
spectacular shots
Beautiful words and beautiful photos!
Very pretty! Love the photos. I love the look of the mist rising off the water - it reminds me of a nearby lake from my childhood memories.
Photos for tranquility. These can go very well with Repose theme too, Word for Wednesday in gardenwalkgardentalk.com
What a dramatic and stunning scenery :)
Nellie girl these pictures are stunning .. it truly envokes the image of the water being like glass it is so still .. perfectly beautiful with prose !
Joy : )
Nellie, I couldn't help but think of this post as I was going to work this morning. I saw a similar photo opportunity but due to appointments I could not stop and try to capture it. But I have yours to enjoy and you give a very beautiful description of the relationship.

Hi Nellie,
Your beautiful words were perfectly illustrated by your photos!
Thanks for your comment on my last post. We are having a nice fall.
Oh, so beautiful...the photographs and the words. We often see such mist and sunlight here in the mountains.
Ah, one of these days I must be up early to capture scenes as beautifully as you've captured these. The epitome of peace !!
Nellie, like a melody your beautiful words truly paint the picture.
Wow, simply gorgeous!
Sooooo lovely!
Beautiful misty dances ...
