Earth
Clouds weep
until wet the lappet of earth.
Germinal green
wears a smile,
but earth seems have already forgotten.
Supporting to produce vegetables
and plenteous fruits,
earth is painted in particular hues.
Living beings satiated
grow weariness.
Chiseling mountains by mountains;
Flattening waters by waters;
Black and cracked earth
is put on
too much sceneries to be enjoyed.
In busy work,
earth splits
in panic with anguished looks,
hardly to satisfy more selfish intentions.
Abuses and bitterness
are buried into mute soil.
Being squeezed the last strength,
you are still in toil
barely for holding up happy laughter and cheerful voices,
clear waters and green mountains.
“He suspends the earth over nothing.”
