I satA
atop the lonely hillB
with a flying dressC
listening to the hymnD
of the hummingbirdsE
echoing in the windF
-
I satA
at the edge of the archaic cliffG
watching the waterfallH
flow beneathI
listening to the musicJ
wonderingK
should I jump and give it all an endL
-
I satA
under the shade of the hazel treeM
watching the silent windF
squeeze in through the barricadeN
To kiss my wet dry lipsO
and gently cool my silky black skinP
-
I satA
at the crossroadsQ
watching the beesR
explore the early morning flowersS
foraging on their nectars to give lifeT
to both themselves and the flowersS
-
I satA
in the hospice gardenU
watching the twinkling starsV
as they glinted like firefliesW
beside the smiling circled moonX
looking at the infinity of the universeY

I satA
on the lonely street benchZ
counting the drizzling rain strokesA2
as they hit my frozen foreheadB2
longing for warmth and comfortC2
and a caring handD2
-
I satA
on the creaky railwayE2
stamping feet to theF2
sound of the distant trainG2
while counting the footprints of soldier antsH2
as they marched in troopsI2
-
I satA
beside the silent streamJ2
pouring down those warm waters in meM
asking river goddess the tale of my ancestorsS
I asked about life's balanceK2
the misery and the painsL2
compared happiness and joyM2
how I could survive the trialsN2
-
I satA
at the seashoreO2
rewriting the tale of the living legendP2
On sandD2
as it keep getting washed away by wavesQ2
