Salamat Sore (English)

A flock of white cranes,
pink afternoon sky,
drenched in paddy green below,
thatched little hut,
shelters my soul,
from blessed rain.

Ducks paddle freely,
in muddy waters,
separating food,
waiting for their shepherd,
whose tattered feet
climb a coconut tree,
up, slash, down
offers me
the sacred milk.

Time passes,
like riverbed sand,
slow, easy, pure.
rice water passes,
through my toes,
sound of flowing peace,
constant, timeless, clean.

No one hears my heels,
on this serene footpath,
guarded by hanging date palms,
one more swoon of the cranes,
above my head,
they cry,



Salamat Sore
