Would You believe that this is Ken, hanging
high
above the water in the Costa Rican Rain Forest?
Well, it is!
The forest falls asleep and dreams,
The river does not sleep but sings.
Among the green shadows
the singing river flows
leaving on the dark bank
flecks of white foam.
My eyes filled with stars,
On the bottom of the boat,
I pass like an emotion
over the music of the water,
and I bear the river on my lips,
and I bear the forest in my soul.
-- Conrado Nale Roxdo
