Grazing: To Chandratal Lake

“If you can imagine it, 

you can do it,” 

the saying goes. 

So he does what he must do:

He waits.

For the grazing guests to draw nigh. Foreground.

For the mist to lift behind the knoll. Middle ground. 

For the clouds to yield the light. Everything he imagined.

Sometimes the doing is in the waiting, 

because timing is everything.
