Heavy bank of clouds remained,
Afternoon was dark until dusk,
No light to draw back the day,
A strong frost shock,

Cracks, gaps, ruptures,

twists and turns. There are gullies and ridges
hags and troughs, a hoary dusk.

Meandering through gullies and the fell
Even bigger mountains for the backdrop
