Through a door we delve
Into an invisible
World without color.
Fog lies low over the grass
Hiding summer underneath.

This reminds me both of Alice in Wonderland and The Wizard of Oz. As though the world we are in is suddenly unreal or changed. Interesting piece.

Loved it! Your poetry is magical! You should think about collaborating with writers (if you are not doing so already) and get your poetry in fantasy novels. Really would suit that vibe.

This reminds me of walking to work early in the mornings, there was a park near my old home where the fog would drift over the grass – it was always so otherworldly and pretty 🙂 Nice one!

Beautiful poem! Thought proving and I agree that it can have several meanings. The way I look at it, we need to take better care of our environment. I can’t imagine not seeing the vibrant colors of summer.

This would be ideal as we treat things as equal. We want to be out of the box with our thoughts and not be held back due to whatever prejudice. Thanks for sharing!
