I'd love to keep my poetry
as brief as can be
like the miniskirt a young girl wears
The shorter it is
the more beauty it reveals
I'd love to keep my poetry
as brief as can be
like the miniskirt a young girl wears
The shorter it is
the more beauty it reveals
Try to live in harmony with people and nature
A tiny pearl may glisten
more brightly
than a mountain of sand
When there is a mountain of sand
in a poem
how could we expect the pearl
to shine through
Try to live in harmony with people and nature
And you're leaving in such a hurry today
it seems only yesterday
you came to visit me
Rosebuds are still young and pretty
For one more day
will you be able to stay
to appreciate their charms together in May
Try to live in harmony with people and nature
Laying my head upon your lap
I can see the carefree clouds
drifting gracefully
high above in the blue sky
like swans swimming in the pond nearby
Summer breeze is blowing gently
wafting your faint fragrance upon me
your soft long hair all over my face
like amazing grace
Lying here for a thousand years and more
let your tender green leaves
fall and cover me with layer after layer
of your loving caress
Till one day of you I'm a part
till death do we never part
Try to live in harmony with people and nature
Simply love you
and don't ask me why
Love you like
little birds love the clouds in the blue sky
Love you like
may flowers love April showers
Love you like
you're the sunshine
and I am the Arctic permafrost
Try to live in harmony with people and nature
I'm taking a rest
in the shade of a banyan tree
while the sun is blazing
without mercy
Counting fallen leaves
one by one
like stories of my life
scattered along the journey
Watching clouds drifting by
like dreams of my youth
passing me by
When the sky is painted
with the evening glow
should I follow
the setting sun or
a homeward bound swallow
Try to live in harmony with people and nature
I have to say goodbye now!
I have to go with the summer wind
to find out the meanings of life,
to see why there are so many flowers on earth
as charming as you!
When you miss me,
you might as well
take a look at the wandering clouds,
floating like them,
I'm traveling everywhere.
When you see a shooting star
on a darkest night,
you'll know it's my life~
short but leaving a delightful trail of light!
Try to live in harmony with people and nature
If you were a white cloud
I'd rather be a blue mountain
lying flat on my back, watching you up above my head
gazing at you night and day
Don't be upset
if I'm gaping and speechless
for there's a little brook beside
rippling you a sweet melody on my behalf
If you ask what I'm worried about most
then you'll see
it's you that might get sad one day
and turn yourself into tears
I'm not afraid to get soaking wet
but I might miss you for ages
before running across
your reincarnation once more
Try to live in harmony with people and nature
Pal
I really adore the truth the depth
and the philosophy
you presented in your poetry
All is perfect
except that I felt giddy
while reading it
and indigestion after consuming it
Try to live in harmony with people and nature
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 no spring for me
Maybe if I keep trudging on
I'll come across a peach village
embraced by a cool brook
Maybe not
before the sky is painted pitch black
Try to live in harmony with people and nature
Is it fate or simply the wind
that you become my best friend
Where have your folks gone
In the yard, you stand all alone
Try to live in harmony with people and nature
If you ask how much I love you
I'll tell you the truth
Were you the morning glory
then I'd be the strong green tree
you nestle up to
Just to catch a glimce of your violet blue
in the morning
I'm willing
to be entwined a thousand times
by your tender green arms
Try to live in harmony with people and nature
I'm perfectly all right now
if you could only erase
those broody clouds from my window pane
I couldn't feel better now
if you could only obliterate
those footprints you left on my memory
Don't you worry about me now
if you could only find me a needle
to stitch up those pieces of pain
Try to live in harmony with people and nature
Why must a caterpillar
ruin a rosebud so pleasant to the eye
Is it greed
or simply the green eye
that can't bear to imagine a blossom
more beautiful than a butterfly

Try to live in harmony with people and nature
Whether on Monday or Tuesday
or Wednesday or Thursday or Friday or Saturday or Sunday
I am OK everyday
except for the day
when my Muse goes on a holiday
that's my most woeful day
