A BILINGUAL ONLINE LITERARY MAGAZINE

Once upon a time

Child, how shall I tell you?

That time, when the ducks knew the warmth of Spring Rivers

People awaited the flowing streams after the melting snow

The wind passed through the world, green trees, red flowers, yellow leaves

The grass bent low revealing cattle and sheep

Child, that time there were star-like islands in the sea, inhabited by peaceful people

Fishing, drying nets, chasing dolphins, collecting shells, playing music, singing songs

That time, the moon was like an old record

Singing a gentle song

Hanging over the snowy mountains

Butterflies fluttering gracefully

White flowers hidden with countless white butterflies,

like Frost and snow sinking into the grass and trees

My dear, I'm at a loss for words

How can I describe that beautiful world?

Glaciers, penguins, polar bears and

A love as pure as snow white

The heavens are empty,

like a giant hollow jar

Forgiving and encompassing all suffering

The slowly rising water level is her unstoppable tears

The world will end in water

You, my child, if you are fortunate enough

Before the deluge arrives

Will become a water grass,

or a fish

Breathing through gills
