in the night
silent elephants
single file towards
the water hole
sudden moonlight
paints them silver

moon shadows
cheetah asleep
under the fig tree
a lion’s roar
swallowing
the silence

barefoot
the house girl
serves
tea in fine china
memsahib
and her guest
talk of rain
on the hills

she sleeps
without dreams
in her garden
palm trees gossip
of a storm
strengthening
off the coast
of Africa
