Be like the flowing river,
Silent in the night.
Be not afraid of the dark.
If there are stars in the sky, reflect them back.
If there are clouds in the sky,
Remember, clouds, like the river, are water,
So, gladly reflect them too,
In your own tranquil depths.-Manuel Bandeira-
Yes the flowing river… Bruce Lee taught me this once, but I’m a naughty pupil, as I do not make my homeworks, the way I should.
And yes, clouds are water… So funny. I forgot, though I also knew.
Reflecting stars: I tried not less than an hour ago, but it blinded my cornea. Maybe the star I chose was too shiny for my little eye of today.
Anyway, that piece of poetry is really a gem for me.
Thank you dear…
