A mountain poem

Kathmandu to Kuala Lumpur 2011
on Chris Parsons's travel map.
A spark in my imagination fires
To reveal what lies behind
The shifting swirling bank of cloud
Rolling in like the tide
Then high in the deep blue sky
A sharpened summit soars
Offering only the slightest glimpse
Of something tantalisingly more...
It's only as darkness descends
That the icy white peaks emerge
Stripped bare of all but a moonlit glow
Silently unheard
