Poems from Lhasa Love
Poets, may your days be the way you like them, whether rainy, sunny, or overcast with anticipation for a storm.
Torrential rain
Washes away
Any trace of you.
Oh, I can wish
All I want,
But it doesn't make it true.
An earthquake comes
And buries...
From deep within,
A roaring comes,
Defying the steady beat of drums.
The people shout,
"Monster, beware!"
You incredulously stare.
Your...
I am young, naïve.
Gleaming like diamonds
My hope shines out bright.
I am worldly, dark.
See-through like diamonds
My hope fades away...
You're a beautiful shower from up high.
Sure, plants have rejoiced in morning dew,
But no other phenomenon would even try
To match the...
Torrential rain
Sudden pain
Then it abates
Opens the gates
Without a sound
To another round
Of the cycle vicious
Oh, life is capricious
