Inspired By An Ancient Poem

Under peaks cloaked in clouds, I climbed,
along gnarled woods and deserted tracks.

Are those temple chimes 
   Coming from an ancient shrine?
Echoes of water rippling over rocky crags.

Sunrays speckle cool pines.
Where thin mist veils a deserted pond
I rest, and my spirit is sublime.
