A walk along the river 
by the playing fields of green
A veil of mist settles low
creating this eerie scene 

The winter sun slowly sinks
behind distant rows of trees
The cold air is still and calm
not even a gentle breeze

As the afternoon drifts by 
bright blue skies fades to light grey
It won’t too be long before 
we lose the light for today 

Soon this view will be gone 
a moment lost forever
Now captured on camera 
it’s mine to keep and treasure
