This morning sun rays
shine gold and deep turquoise
a monkey clambers across a roof top
and bright green parrots
flit by
swiftly
as if they are the bats of last night
dressed for day
The "call to prayer" echoes through the streets
the breeze carries news of
animals
dung
motorbikes
a river
people
ancient stones
