Mutual Mother
Since
you have arrived in the World
the
Universe has been enlightened.
You
are the spring fountain of Nature
the
Mother to nourish everything
by
speechless love
filling
in the whole space in Taiwan
on
the same time axis as mine
at
once far away and close by.
Wherever
I have gone
you
are together with my soul.
Without
inquiring
I
am always accompanied by you.
Without
incarnation
you
are forever my guardian Goddess.
Muse
A
small room of heart can accommodate
whole
sky, don't you believe?
I
definitely decide to empty it at all
for
opening my mind to accept poetry and arts
turning
the virtual figure that seen by everyone
into
an essential reality in the world
turning
the nothingness that seen by everyone
into
a substantial being of the life.
I
have within my tiny heart full of
loves
to my Taiwanese people and land.
As
a Muse of poetry and arts
I
am not necessarily to appear before you frequently
so
long as you accept me in same opening your mind.
I
do accompany with you always
and
guard your soul keeping holy and purity.
Evolution
Originated
from the nature
my
gesture keeps a natural melody.
I
have engaged into the real world
to
observe the reality of the world.
The
hard suffering of the people
makes
my thought
representing
a colorful plural aspects.
My
anxiety causes my appearance changed.
What
my concerns
does
not depart the essence of nature
yet
combining
the
evolution of modern technological
civilization.
Rebirth
From
hurt land
the
arms extend again
as
strong as steel.
The
sun will never stingy to take care of
non-stop
growing green leaves.
The
cracked land is
still
the base of growth.
Just
do not despair
the
hope has been waiting
for
the deepest open wound
radiated
by the sunshine at last.
The
fresh bough of rebirth
would
be cheered by storm and
grows
up to a giant tree of thousand years.
Natural Law
My
life is an incarnation of the tree
raised
by the land.
My
body has become in turn
the
source of nutrition for other species
People
and nature are symbiotic
endlessly.
Harmony
in living is an universal truth.
Mushroom
are parasites on the tree
and
the tree incarnates to my life.
My
life is
nothing
but the mushrooms in nature.
I
present the example
an
invariable natural law.
