Rivers of the ghats

by Jo Halliday

Born among clouds, flowing like mists
a round basket will not founder in the eddies,
silver shoots of dawn will not find way to the grass
at the foot of the hill; a jeep stands there, a man in uniform
ready to go at war; a child well built runs barefoot, so assured;
Coffee shall seem the world, red little paths deep into them,
so deep that the men's laugh drinking toddy is hardly borne,
only the joy of a whirlpool, another new rain comes up.
