Dec 2013
the clouds hang over the mountains
the mist over the trees
and our huts are hidden in the moving fog
that stretches over our seclusion
most days;
on a good day when the sun
regains its strength
we see the mountains
and there is clarity in our hearts…
and so are our days spread
like the trees and mountain ranges
over this enduring earth
the mist over the trees
and our huts are hidden in the moving fog
that stretches over our seclusion
most days;
on a good day when the sun
regains its strength
we see the mountains
and there is clarity in our hearts…
and so are our days spread
like the trees and mountain ranges
over this enduring earth
poem based on the painting “Mountains in Clouds” by Chen Chun (1483-1544)
