The card players ...




The yellow ship lay quiet upon the water -

The warm strand was empty -

There were no card players sitting under the fig tree  -

It was too early in the day -

They would gather there later, when the sun was low in the sky -

The sea captains and the fishermen -

Choosing their few words carefully -

Smoking -

Drinking the dark tea -

Blessed with wisdom of their grandfathers -
