    The document is a poem titled "Silent Trails" describing the misty and lonely trails of Benguet hills in the Philippines. When the mist veils the sun, the trails are silent and even the wind stirs only ferns and bamboo brakes. The laden Benguet women pass, beating their pakkongs in a cadenced rhythm, while the ravines are deep and the skies are high above. The poem paints a vivid picture of the isolated and mountainous landscape through sparse descriptive details.
