“Meeting Peace” (Coulon Marais Poitevin / 2008)
An Octain Refrain poem by Kwoa.
My lethargic barque gently drifts,
under lush trees’ soothing shadows,
and dragonflies’ waltz with light glows.“Here cease your worries; nature’s gifts!”,
Distant echoes of that instant,
almost troubling reed carps’ and swifts.Such oppressing peace, my brain blows.
