GREY SKY
When I close my eyes
I remembered
When earth felt sun’s warmth
Cloud run leave trail thin in the blue sky
Paddy under it starts
yellowing
When I open my eyes
I begin to reflect
Soul of selfishness destroys
nature
Destroying the hope of God’s
creatures
Paddies are not yellowing
anymore
The air no longer fills
lungs
Only the dust that fills
every sniff
Sound of the machine
substitute an air
Be irregular tone rhythm
The sky is no longer a
reflection of the ocean
Only the grey skies are
faithful to accompany
God, forgive me because I can
not keep your gift
I’m not strong enough
against them
People who are greedy for
treasure
I can only stand enjoying this view
A blue sky hiding behind a grey sky
