Reaching Clouds End
Walking high above the clouds
along mountain tracks
clean and fresh
space to breathe, to contemplate
playful monkeys afford distraction
a welcome relief.
Later that evening, campfire food
singing and dancing
leave the shadows far behind
amongst the laughter with new friends
watching the flickering flames
of the glowing bonfire.
The moon appears
watching silently behind mountains
our eyes meet across the oceans
as time is frozen in this land
stars dance hesitantly
in frustrated anticipation.
