Half Pot Of Yarn
as the water flows, the green flowers bloom
lazy sunset, the red sky, I head home
softly the wind comes, covering the mulberry fields
I let go of the fragrant thread, setting it down
peach blossoms in the distance, the year’s beauty shines
pearls in the crown, hair falling down
fragrant incense wafts, the jade-like green sand
an empty stream unfolds, the pale tea leaves
if I lay down, it’s like the mountains and rivers in my heart
in your eyes, you can see it all
I change my steps, the lotus blooms in the path
how can I know that the breeze carries a piece of grass
as the months pass, it ages me
the wind and flowers, the birds laugh, it’s all a dream
