RAIN FOG MOUTAIN
FORESTS
(A poem of natural wisdom)
I
Clad in rain and mist
Stroll with ease
Stroll with ease
In mountain forests
Tender green
For me
Nature’s
Arms
Open
Here
Hundreds of shades of violet, thousands of reds
Bright colours
Here
Hundreds of modes, thousands of poses
Forms, images
Revealing
Natural beauty
Splendid attire
Here
Green grass, shining leaves
Like a lover
Meek
Pervading
Charming
Fragrance
Here
Beneath the trees that pierce through the sky
Tiny flowers
Its body is rising and falling
Swinging in wind
Here
In the mountain’s waterfall, flying
Silver dragon
Sound
A sky-rock
Thrilling of the roar
Here
Gently circling around the mountain ranges
Low clouds
Spreading
Melodious
Songs
Here
The seagull dancing, sparrow singing
River side
Flying
Symphony
Of sensations
Ah
Nature
Here
Everything
Belongs to your
Masterpiece
Ah
Nature
Here
Everything
Belongs to your
Reflections, images
I
Embrace
you
I
Praise
You
I
Will stray
From your
Arms
I
Clad in rain and mist
Stroll with ease
Stroll with ease
In mountain forests
Tender green
For me
Nature’s
Arms
Open
Open
Open
