Ladakh

The Mountains stood in Haze 

The Valleys stopped below

And went or waited as they liked

The River and the Sky

At leisure was the Sun 

His interests of Fire

A little from remark withdrawn 

The Twilight spoke the Spire,

So soft upon the Scene

The Act of evening fell

We felt how neighborly a Thing

Was the Invisible
