In the basin the old wrinkled hands are quiet for a while
and her head is bowed in reverence
while a tear runs down her face
and if you should ask about it

The time of year had come again
when our school was having a fair.
Letters that beg and plea
for helping hands,
...
Before you came into my life
the candle of love had burnt out
a long time ago
and I was left hard and cold.
...
There was a time in my life
when I was just a child
and we lived in a small community
in the mountains of the Marico district
...
You got out of bed,
opened the curtains to let the sun come through
and turned back to me with a smile saying:
...
When the heaven cries outside
and are taking pleasure
in songs of joy and pain
...
With small beady eyes you are watching me
and do appear with your round body
where you are sitting on your hind legs
and are rubbing your hands together
...
Where streams flow,
where the sun rises in the east
far beyond the morning star
where darkness has no place to hide
...
Your words are like thousands of butterflies
landing on the flowers of my heart.
and I have learned to blossom
when I hear them.
...
“Am I my brother’s keeper? ”

in a answer of what God had asked him
and I wonder am I?
