(山靜)
The body lives in the box
of macro social forces;
the brain, every second and minute
lives in a sea of micro-situations.
So many passengers , ideas, and voices
come and go, in all shapes, sizes, and colors.
Whether they inflict unbearable pain
or bring joy or a mixed bag
of tears and laughter…
Some will pass by, leaving no marks;
Some will make a dent on, or become
an island in your memory.
Only the One
that echoes the heart,
validation flowing
in a river of beauty,
brings peace and happiness
to the journey of life,
not transient, but forever.
