a thought on maps of mountains

How lovely to be kept apart by mountains
 rising on their maps like As each
Against  Another
whole countries saying
 Aaah
at opposite peaks
their slow rippling
singing of the iron in the valley
the iron and stone which made them
 long
        Ago
   the iron and stone we take of them
to mark our beginnings

with A

starts and falls

And

separations

All

on one surface

Amazed
