Ice jingle

Hello my friend, if

you come to me in winter time

I will bring you near the outlet of an ancient pond

where the sun never shines

We will see the wind-driven ripples superimposed on

             the current from the inlet to the outlet

             break the thin ice apart into pieces

             and make them jingle

That is the music I want to share

 

On a calmer day, however,

the ice was solid

you barely saw the ripples

much less the water flow

The pond looked still

             as calm, as senile, as an old monk’s face

Who knew the old monk was composing and

             rehearsing in the quiet place

             in stillness there was a song
