I see the fog at 4 o’clock
It is white and light gray
I think of all the people
Who are in a fog and dwell in it
I think of the illegal drugs
Coming up from Mexico
They are white like the fog
And people using them
Fogocate (new word) to
Depression, overdosing, and death
It is a sad, sad, situation
I cannot see the horizon
However the Hummingbirds
Have no trouble finding their feeder
Two there at one time insures
A frenzy. They must enjoy solitude
There are four feeding holes but
That has no matter on the situation
The government cannot tax them
I hope my supply of sugar lasts
Until my next scheduled trip
To our local grocery. Gas prices
Are so high that we have to reduce
Unnecessary trips to save money
Political decisions have caused
Much of the disheveling in the world
Most of the previous administration’s
Policies have been reversed
Incompetent people are in charge or
Is anyone in charge?
There are many things to learn, and
I have learned that there is beauty
In the time of day and in the time of
Night and there is peace in the river
And in the hills as well as the fog
