The Life Game

April 25, 2021

Where is my verse?

In the atmosphere…?

 

Hiding in snowy mountains?

Or, blooming in an oasis?

Maybe travelling in

An unknown path…

 

Where was my verse?

Searched and found

The words…

Collected them in my

Precious heart

Along with blooming thoughts.

 

Painted my words

with a brush

Borrowed from the moon. 

It sparkled and sparkled.

 

When you entered

My heart

They ran and hid somewhere…

 

I am still searching

Where is my verse?
