THE LAKE IN MY LITTLE POEM
Poor lake, it seems we don't need to
make an appointment, because the
wind will peek at your silence and you
don't need to be sure if you can see it
later "I remind you"
So you, show me the lost house first,
because from it I will make a forest
and then a boat, so that I can find my
old lecil poetry written there even
though everything comes faster than
the ruins of the moonlight at night.
Let what has been dead for a long
time no longer sprout, because the
smell of your body always asks for
company when the flowers bloom at dusk.
I WANT TO BE YOUR STORY
At a river I searched under the shady
night sky. I seem to see the light
penetrate your body and if one day
my poetry is lost, find me in the next
silence, maybe you can reminisce and
no longer need to mark the stars on
the hill that never dies.
To me you are like a florigerminis
jurassica flower waiting to bloom and
then smell its aroma.
So stay quiet in the spring so that no
one can propose to you except your
longing who often comes to visit,
because you are the moon in the house that I built.
IF THERE IS STILL DRISTER
If there is still drizzle, let the wind
carry your body scent, then embrace
all the tempests and let a pair of
butterflies offer a smile.
And if later someone wants to say it
hurts, just forget it because you are
no longer arguing for thousands of
drizzles that have fallen in vain.
Keep everything quiet, don't worry
because you are not just silent among the wet leaves.
