A poem by Hanshan translated from Chinese by Lonewolf

Up high
               where I dwell
the snow drifts
                takes away your breath
 freezes on contact
                 with the air swishing
through elevated skies
                  where snowy peaks
of clouds drift away
                                 in swirls
