An orchid blooms in the white snow
You can not grasp water but it's inside the soil
You can't touch fire but it's inside the tree
You can not catch the wind, but it's resting on the
rock.
If u let them be, they'll exist everywhere.
The faint blue light makes me sigh
My white breath turned into snow and tears
I couldn't let them drop and hid them,
Despite knowing that they will fill up again,
Yes, am too good a fool who dares ñot shade a single tear., for a broken empty piece of Jade
In That Piece Of Jade

Poet's note: I wrote it for my younger sister Lucy. She has reached a stage of self actualization..her youth.. it's a stage wea she might meet things that seems too precious like jade,..but empty. It means all that glitters ain't gold. The emptiest vessels make the loudest noise. The most precious things in life has the worst outfits and looks risky to pursue.
