For a friend

I would like to invite you to join me, to go to some countryside

There are mountains, water and nice idyllic scenery

The farmhouse by the river has a wide wooden platform, and from the evening

We gather around a dining table

where we drank tea

Water, boiling pot after pot

tea, repeatedly steeped and then replaced with

new ones

This was the moment when we drove hundreds of kilometers

The moment we came to the countryside, the wind blowing from the river

soothed our souls

I know

Our hands will always have trivia that we can't throw away

Like the rocks under the water

When I look up, the hazy candlelight reflects everything around me

The blue night sky slides by a star

My heart, in the even breathing, is like the surface of water

Creating some imperceptible ripples
