as my smiles bloom when you come!
Someone asks in daze
why I turn glum when you move!
How can’t they understand?!
Vast, wide world is set alight
with the wandering Sun’s advent!
As the Sun moves out of sight
myriad lights can’t make the world bright!
Someone sulks that it’s not them,
but, you that makes my heart warm!
Someone wonders why dear you are,
more than even all of them!
Who will tell them?!
All the summer-nights’ sparkling stars
don’t even tingle the dark ocean’s spray!
But, the wide sea turns ablaze
with the rising Sun’s first ray!
Some do envy how your presence
always holds my tongue in sway!
Some see plainly that I hug reticence
whenever it is that you move away!
How’ll they understand?!
Why for the hot Sun, the lotus blooms,
not for the moon’s cool, misty gaze,
and, never lives long enough to relish
the dark spring night’s pleasant breeze?!
