Poem 3

 

          Unforgettable 

 

When the young handsome teacher 

Talking in front of black board

My brain totally out the window

Running in the air 

Searching for your trace

Rock music pounding my ears

Hundreds people shaking around me dancing

My mind out of the city

Meeting you on the rainbow bridge

Why can you cover other colors?

Why do you command preeminence?

Over such a long distance

Your passion ruins my inspiration

We stroke the iridescent clouds on the top of mountain

You’re holding me and spinning

While those dandelions are flying

Under our feet

Mountains and rivers are rushing

We hug each other 

Rolling and rolling

Flowers and plants 

Staining with falling hair and clothing

We are rowing the boat

Mandarin ducks are playing

The fish leaping out of the water

We are picking wild lilies

You are feeding me in the cluster of reeds

We are riding the camel 

Seeing sweet spring

Passing through in the desert

We are picking up the shell pearls

Weaving necklaces

The tide water rising and falling

We are lying down on the golden yellow cauliflowers

Feeling each other’s heart beating

 

Thunder colliding in bursts of energy

In a fire land

Fire appears fragmentarily 

In the remotest of places

We are nestling up 

Counting stars in the sky

We are lingering 

Over again and again
