Ode to My Bag
On my shoulders
I carried you
For so long
bitter-sweet burden
Holder of knowledge
tracing my destiny
I owe you my identity
You owe me an apology
Oh, bag!
you deserve a eulogy!
□
Spring
Oh, Spring! I heard you said
Wake up beauty, winter is dead
Are you celebrating winter's last breath?
Yes, my arrival is awaited rebirth
It's nature awakening and wedding
All in colourful dress,
God bless!
□
If Not Me
Without thinking twice a snail
I would be
carrying my house on my back,
carefree
Walking slowly at my own pace
Challenging time of haste and technology!
□
Tinge
When our eyes meet
I detect a tinge
Telling whether you are
Sad or glad
And tinged become my word
According to your world!
