I have been walking
along this winding mountain trail
covered with small pebbles
and fallen leaves
for too long and too far
I forget where I am now
I can't even recall
why I took this journey
in the first place
The cicadas' love songs
are fervent
as the blazing sun
and all the honey bees are dancing
and singing
around their sweet daisies
But there seems to be no spring
for me
Maybe
if I keep trudging on
I'll come across
a peach village
embraced by a winding cool brook
before the sky is painted
pitch black
Maybe not
