Silence of the Hearts in the Village

By Monica Agcaoili

Anna Tobeluk Memorial School





I can see the drops of snow in the window

I can hear the soft wind blows

the machine inside our house to keep me warm

the crows cried from afar.


The silence tickles my mind to write

and this is the start

village life here in the tundra is like a poem

expressed literally and beyond words


I word a poem from the 2-day training

today is December 3, 2022

marks my day to express gratitude

through this playful mind of mine.


Thankful to the sweet breeze and snow

though I can't feel, it touches soul

beyond compare, new adventures

new life... sweet and peaceful.


Thankful to the lovely people of Nunap;

their endless smiles, the pat on my shoulder

like sister and brother, like my family away

sweet, helpful, and understanding!
