Fog Poem summary
The poet is describing fog. Fog is a dense cloud of small water droplets present in the atmosphere. It is usually seen during the winter season. Here the poet describes the advancement of fog towards the city and the port. He says that the fog comes as the cat gets on its short legs. This means that the fog towards the city grows very slowly and calmly like a cat. No one knows when and how the fog will enter the city. Therefore, fog is compared to a cat that enters our house in an unexpected way. He further states that due to the fog in the entire city, a cat sits quietly and bends his legs back and looks at nearby places and things. Likewise, It seems that the fog silently covers the entire city and harbor and is looking around like a cat. After a while, Fog leaves the city. The poet says this because it is a natural phenomenon that the fog does not stay in one place for long and leaves the place after a few hours. So, here also the poet says that like a cat, the fog leaves the place very quietly without seeing anyone.
