To A Niece Living In The Mountains....

Rating: 5.0


how i wish
my distant niece
writes
another poem
for the
dry land?

how flowers
still grow
despite the
drought

how the mudfish
buries itself
and never die

how free is the
hungry dove
flying in the sky?

we never pay
for the cost of
the kindness of
our words

how clouds
play well when
sunset comes

how endless is
the flow of the
river
who never dreams
of sea
