the more walking you do
the more stones will be worn
the weight of the days
will hurt your feet
you will have been
around the earth
just by going to the market

à force de marcher
on usera les pierres
le poids des jours
nous fera mal aux pieds
on aura presque fait
le tour de la terre
en allant au marché
#3052 clouds (12)
photo : clouds in Nelson
you recognised yourself
in the shape of a cloud
and you even knew the color of the raindrops that would fall with the evening
you were tranquil like a monk in his temple
although you weren't yet of the age of Reason
#3052 nuages (12)
photo : nuages, Nelson
tu te reconnaissais
dans la forme d’un nuage
et même, tu savais la couleur
des gouttes de pluie qui tomberaient
avec le soir
tu étais tranquille comme un moine dans son temple
et tu n’avais pas encore l’âge de raison

You will hardly speak,
but I won't answer,
in the pure light,
on the way there
in weary gestures,
and the story of yesteryear
of proud memory
