Today the mountain is so peaceful ,
like a deity who inspires confidence,
lavishing blessing on it's children !
Today harvest will be fruitful !
Is this the sweetness of heaven's pastures ?
The times to come will promise prosperity !
Our respected princes have assured us
and we believe in the protection
of benevolent spirits ...
I wear on my lips the salt of the foam
that comes tenderly to die on the shore...
Amusing monkeys leap from branch to branch
like indolent little bananas thieves ...
What a lovely afternoon to enjoy a cup of tea
and forget about destiny ...
I contemplate the mountain dozing
in the middle of the bay ,all is harmony...
Far from our islands ,dead leaves fall on life
and world masters battle for clouds empire...
Fishing was good today ! the sea is our caring mother.
Soon ,the sun's eyes will close and the night star
will watch over our sleep ...
Here on the straits between two oceans
where dreaming beings await departure ...

There is a soft rhythm in your words that seems meditative, like observing life in its purest form.
On the other hand you have created an expressive contrast between the peaceful life on islands in the middle of two oceans and the shadow of distant conflicts of the “masters of the world”.
I really enjoyed your piece.
But what lies behind this feeling of serenity ?
fiery clouds that will sweep down the slopes of the awakening volcano...
