Through a Break in the Trees -

Through a break in the trees - Flows a tawny river - Sanding the rock endlessly As a peerless carver. The jungle is not seen In the murky water's face. The sky does not skim upon Its delicate countenance. It refuses the trees' approach. The rushing seeks to replace Tribulations for peace - Skipping them away. Its waters fill my mind. I remember Zongo Falls As an obscure haven For which my heart longs.
