ENVOIThe Moon at night helps flowers to blossom.
A native of the heavens, he offers
Cool shade to those who honor him, glowing
Heat to others. Like the white parasol
Of the Cola king who protects, he appeared
Benign to Matavi, ominous to lonely Kannaki
(It's better to create than destroy what's unnecessary)
