MOONSET AT CENTRAL PARK


STATION
ST. PAUL SUBTERRANEAN
RIVER NATIONAL PARK

John Iremil Teodoro

This morning,
after the faint scent
of sea grasses
awakened me,
I followed
the setting moon
in the reef flats
in front of my bamboo cottage.
I nearly stepped on a parrotfish
that I was caught
by the low tide.
It was as big as my slipper.

I picked its slimy body


and returned it
to the sea.
In its excitement
it forgot to thank me.
It didn’t even bother
to look back –
It swam quickly away from me.
It dived towards the direction
of the horizon where the moon
was hiding. Perhaps in my next visit
that parrotfish will surprise me
with a greeting.
It shall brag to me about its scales
painted by the setting moon.
