A bystander

Print

The wind blows the snow of the
Chestnut tiny flower
Deeps them in the heart and
Stirs the wish

The May has its imperfect stranger

Whereas the fishes in frivolity
Move
Remind happiness

He is not a fish to know their joy
A bystander is not HE to know
What he is supposed to

The heart is missing space
It accommodates myriads of souls
In an elixir drinking ceremony

They have comprehended the value
Of mundane and sacral

They have concept the greatness
Of the tiniest life’s incidents

They are latterly the bystanders
The one alike
Myself

And we are not the fishes
We can not fail to remember
The walking in the twilight of evergreen
Pine needles beneath our bare naked feet
Bloodied
But the fresh verdure shines
Our souls in
NOW
