Have you ever..?

Thursday, May 1, 2014

Have you ever walked under the moon?
Have you ever licked the morning dew?
Have you ever tasted the rain?
Or have you ever dreamt of touching the clouds?

Do you know that sugar cane tastes better than sugar?
Do you know how hard it is to grab a fish?
Do you know how long does a cockroach need to flip its body back?
Or do you know how exciting it is to watch a butterfly hatch from its cocoon?

Oh,
How I love listening to the brisk of leaves in windy days
How I love catching the escaping fireflies
How I love counting frog's eggs among the lotus leaves
And how I love how the warm 3 p.m. sun feels on my skin

Gosh,
I want to walk on the warm, tickling seasand
I long to sit in the moving river just to feel the pebbles on my butt
I'd love to breath the humid, earthy smell of the ricefield
Gosh, I'd kill for a view of the long-awaited sunrise behind the horizon

That was a glimpse of my childhood
Have you ever felt like that?
