Shimmering Water

On the banks of River Rhine Under the morning sun And the blue sky shining The gentle breeze rustled Along the silvery water Wooden boats sailed slowly Accompanied by choir of bee Which sounds melodious and sweet The beautiful little flowers grow Whiter than fur than snow Full of smiles, looking at Gold fishes that are playing The wonderful rotating cloud Which is the natural grace Singing love songs in Spring To the leaves are greenish The yellow and red butterflies Sigh shook majestically Viewing wonders at Water flowing Under the shade of vine trees Who is always shining joy Always have cheerful dance with The rhythm of the river water Under the golden stone fountain That herrings are gliding soaring Engrossed race with the water flow Kept mumbling and longed for freedom Bouquet of lilies sways Floating to the west bank The shining frescoes never left The goose that swims around The cherry blossom Filling the day with peace Entertaining lonely grasshopper With love poems of water Petals of the dandelion bud sigh As mysterious as the May rainbow Reaching the vortex of flowing wave Shimmering Water that never go again (dedicated to a great pianist, Kotaro Fukuma)
