The Little Match Girl

The Little Match Girl

Christmas,
A new year with love,
You sit under a tree,
Waiting for the hugs,
Your mother is gone,
You stand alone,
With the matches in your hands,
You shout,
Someone, someone come!
But there’s no one around,
You smell the meal from the chimney,
You are hungry and thirsty,
You use a match,
You see chicken and candies,
You use a match,
You see a Christmas tree,
You use a match,
You see your grandma on the street,
You shout,
Grandma, Grandma, let me up,
Let me up to the heaven,
Let me live with you,
I said,
Girl, don’t be sad,
But that sec,
You finally dead,
With your last fired match.

If I Was a Kite

If I was a kite

 I am a kite,
Flying in the sky,
Trees and clouds,
Appears in my eyes,
Free and fun,
Make me feel nice.

Suddenly, a storm comes,
The lightning shine,
And the thunder sound,
I am afraid,
Afraid about I might gone,
Gone to fire,
Gone forever,
Can anyone help me?
But nothing is around,
Birds fly away,
Planes fly away,
I can only see dark,
And lightning around.

Finally, the storm disappears,
I am on the ground,
I feel lonely,
And scared,
I still see the lightning shine,
And the thunder sound,
I try to calm down,
But in my memory,
The scenes always come.

If I Were a Drop of Water

If I were a drop of water

If I were a drop of water,
I would go to the desert,
I would wet the people in desert,
Wet their lips with me.

If I were a drop of water,
I would go to the dry places,
Wet the dying plants,
Do my best to make them alive.

If I were a drop of water,
I would drop into the lake,
The fish will need me,
The fish will drink me,
To make them safe and happy.

If I were a drop of water,
I would do my best,
Make dry to wet,
Make hot to cool,
Make dangerous to safe,
Make dead to alive,
And make sad to happy.

Anyway, if I were a drop of water,
I wish,
I would be the clean water,
The water from the vital mainstream,
The water of life.
Please treasure me,
And the earth would be better!

I Love Fall


I Love Fall
I love fall! Fall is exciting.
It's apples and cider.
It's an airborne spider.
It's pumpkins in bins.
It's burrs on dog's chins.
It's wind blowing leaves.
It's chilly red knees.
It's nuts on the ground.
It's a crisp dry sound.
It's green leaves turning
And the smell of them burning.
It's clouds in the sky.
It's fall. That's why...
I love fall.

Summer

Summer

Listening to the summer chimes,
Of summer sounds of summer time,
Bringing all that nature is,
That shows and sounds like,
Summer chimes,

Chimes of soft winds,
Chimes of soft river streams,
Sounds that say of that time and season,
That summer time sounds so sweet,
It rings the sounds of summer chimes,
With rays of sunlight streaming by,

Summer chimes with summer wines,
Can be the momentum interludes of summer times,
When summer time is to be,
There in natures places,
Full of bloom and hidden places,
Where,
Listening to the summer chimes,
Of summer time,
And sitting and drinking,
A summer wine,

I Hate Beaches

I Hate Beaches

The sand is gold,
The waves are cool,
But when I walk on it,
I feel horrible.

The sand is between my toes,
Rough and hot,
I walk into the sea,
Try to wash it off,
But the waves come and go,
The sand is between my toes,
I will never wash it off,
Except for the waves can stop.

The Night

The Night

The night is a big black cat,
Coming very spooky,
The night has no light,
It is not bright,
The moon stops in the sky,
The husband is singing to his wife,
The kids are sleeping in their beds,
Playing in their dream,
A busy day is gone,
A new day has come……

A Cow

A cow

A cow is friendly,
A good animal,
A cow eats grass,
But it's got a lot of meat itself.
It works tired all day,
It works for human.
When human kills it,
Going to eat it,
It won’t cry,
It just looks at you,
For a long time,
It is your friend,
And you just look at it,
For a long time,
You feel bad,
You killed a cow, a friend,
A spirit worked for you all day,
And all the time……

April

April

Praise the spells and bless the charms,
I found April in my arms.
April golden, April cloudy,
Gracious, cruel, tender, rowdy;
April soft in flowered languor,
April cold with sudden anger,
Ever changing, ever true --
I love April, I love you.

Found Poem (Criss Cross)

 Found Poem (Criss Cross)

The parking lots are empty a half,
Or full a half,
Half-dozen lights,
On tall poles flickered to life,
In the thirty minutes,
It had taken them to drive,
The air has slipped,
From spring to winter,
A few more cars pulled in,
And released noisy gusts of people,
Into the chilly dry air,
Car doors slammed,
It was cold this way,
But he felt it made him look older,
Colder but older,
Older but colder,
Colder and colder,
Older and older,
The edge of night,
Moved visibly across the sky……

Be My Valentine

Be My Valentine

If I love you, with a love that won't die,
Will you love me in the sweet by and by?

If I love you, with all of my life,
Will you love me in spite of the strife?

If I love you, be it poor or with riches,
Will you love me enough to do the dishes?

If I love you, come rain or come shine,
Will you love me and always be mine?

Ode to Snow

Ode to Snow

Snow,
The white tiny cold snow,
Flying very very slow,
The kids are cheering,
And playing in the snow,
They look up to the sky,
Taste the sweet lovely snow,
The snow becomes water in their mouth.
The snow is soft like silk,
And smooth like a cocoa.
The snow is coming,
So don’t forget to put on your coat!
