Hereabout the Alps

Masterful!  

   lordly framed 
    picturesque rain stain
   ing icy cap summit’s height, 

vaulting off grassy green 
 pediplain’s sloping foothills, 
impinging azure sky’s obscur
 ing clouds.  

   blazing sunbeam painted 
    freshet rush to where river-rocks 
   are the fairest. 

rosy-finch, gray-crowned, 
 bathe cross-winds breeze clink
ing conifers lazing at the frost rich shore, 
 river flow, embolden splendor.  

   the poetics surrendered? 
    ingest’d without disturbance,— by us,  
   graylings are of abound... thus!
