Every sound we make

Every sound we make
is the sign of hunger and thirst.
a calf cries for her mother
all day.
Evening arrives
and then the cow comes
with milk dripping from her udder.

Where does your sweetness
come from? I said to a robin.
From a deep silence
that cannot even be uttered.
she said and kept singing.
