*by The River

By the river I waited for the birds to come To bring me leaves of romance, Yet hours passed and none came To the azure of light even a single one With many sighs, I still hoped the bells will ring To sing the songs I am longing to hear Yet hours passed and none broke The silence sitting in my heart Wishful still, expectant, not surrendering, Even for the last minutes of cascading grains Even the hands of time say give up and don't wait I waited to hear something for the changes Changes on the waters of the lake yet none came... Is it worthy to fight one more battle When you know your knight had already surrendered? Hopelessness is all the answer, Uncertainties swirl with the winds and storm. With the last dropp of grain realization came, Saw a clearer picture of the small house by the river Just us, a mother and her kids alone Carving their own life on every walls Plouging their own beautiful garden and smiling through the dawns... Just the three of us by the river 03-17-10
