Sometimes I wish
I
were a part of the turning wheel
of
Infinite Space and Time,
to
cherish and spread
the
ten thousand wonders of the mortal lands.
Connecting
the Past and Present,
the
hearts and dreams that soar above the mountains...
Amidst
the Milky Way, clouds of twinkling stars,
millenniums
of light-year travel from afar,
are
those celestial orbs still there today,
or
just a shadow
of
a dream
long
passed away…
Sometimes I wish
I were the Wind to
wander across the world
Today: frolicking in the
bustling harbor
Tomorrow: from a secluded
haven,
floating on nature music
in lovers' autumn,
envisioning a pair of
hazel eyes
reflecting pools of
liquid moonlight…
See over there the lines
of pine trees on the hilltops,
stretching upward
proudly toward the sun,
embracing light, wind
and dewdrops,
waving their arms toward
the far horizon...
Miles out in the Western
Sea,
dolphins dancing in
boisterous glee.
Rippling waters and
ocean tides,
forever singing The Song
of Death and Life!...
Sometimes I wish
I were an enchanted
river of poetic dreams
To empathize with
thousands of spiritual kins:
Moments of deep sorrow
and sparkling mirth,
laughter, hope, despair,
and soul rebirth.
Images of warriors
sharpening swords under the moonlight
Their spirits still echo
in nature with their might.
And from the women
chambers,
silent tears calling out
to their husband soldiers...
The loneliness so heavy,
like a tangible fog,
wrapping in dark gloom
the fragile human heart.
O God! Why’s Fate chosen
so often blind
to sever Love from Love
on the long journey of
Life...
