Chapter 9 ◎Dawn
open your eyes and look at me
The sky and the earth are gradually opening, two shy stars in the morning light
A deer escapes across a green meadow
Forget the plum blossoms in the bushes
A herd of zebras crosses a clear water stream
Give the stripes to the brook
A fanatical heart swaying on the river
joy.happy breath
let the bird sing
Every flower, every grass, every tree
all wearing green and delicate skirts
sipping dew, waiting
Schools of fish in the eyes, the world rimmed with gold
Everything is still, not still, not moving
oh dear
Lo and behold, a little squirrel turned and ran away...
