Stray Birds

"Stray Birds" is a poetic journey exploring the transient beauty of nature and the profound connections of love and existence. From singing summer birds to the solemn autumn leaves, it reflects on life's ephemeral moments and the vastness of the world shrinking to intimate moments of love. Through delicate imagery, it contemplates the earth's tears that fuel joy, the desert's longing for a single blade of grass, and the intertwined paths of strangers leading to profound connections. This collection captures the essence of life's fleeting beauty and the deep bonds that unite us.

1

STRAY birds of summer come to my window to sing and fly away.

And yellow leaves of autumn, which have no songs, flutter and fall there with a sigh.

2

O TROUPE of little vagrants of the world, leave your footprints in my words.

3

THE world puts off its mask of vastness to its lover.

It becomes small as one song, as one kiss of the eternal.

4

IT is the tears of the earth that keep her smiles in bloom.

5

THE mighty desert is burning for the love of a blade of grass who shakes her head and laughs and flies away.

6

IF you shed tears when you miss the sun, you also miss the stars.

7

HE sands in your way beg for your song and your movement, dancing water. Will you carry the burden of their lameness?

8

HER wistful face haunts my dreams like the rain at night.

9

ONCE we dreamt that we were strangers.

We wake up to find that we were dear to each other.
