Buangkok

I come here to meet friends 
the collared and white throated kingfishers perched on fences 
flashing their blues in lightning strikes 
the striated herons the colour of rocks,  creeping along the rocks 
the otters frolicking in the river 
adults and babies and toddlers 
in graceful dives 
noisily chomping on fish at times
the terrapins who poke their noses out tentatively to check the coast is clear
the green parrots who fly in flocks high above, boldly calling out to one another as they fly
this is a place of peace 
for me
where my friends make me happy 
just by being here
