im Nebel / in the mist

Im Nebel

Seltsam, im Nebel zu wandern!
Einsam ist jeder Busch und Stein,
Kein Baum sieht den andern,
Jeder ist allein.

Voll von Freunden war mir die Welt,
Als noch mein Leben licht war;
Nun, da der Nebel fällt,
Ist keiner mehr sichtbar.

Wahrlich, keiner ist weise,
Der nicht das Dunkel kennt,
Das unentrinnbar und leise
Von allen ihn trennt.

Seltsam, Im Nebel zu wandern!
Leben ist Einsamsein.
Kein Mensch kennt den andern,
Jeder ist allein.


November 1905, by Hermann Hesse

A sad poem of a great poet. I learned it at school and always think of it, when I walk through the mist.
Beautiful tones...wonderfully mysterious

@ninaganci Heartfelt thanks, Nina. It's nearly what I saw that moment. I cropped it to get the square format and made it a little more reddish. I was very tired because I had no sleep the night before, but I forgot about that when the sun came out and made the fog glow. Ten minutes later, the show was over.
Have a nice weekend :)
