Lying on lush grassland
Sight fixed on sky
Heaven’s bright eye stands revealed
Shimmering between the white divine clouds
I enjoy listening to the little sparrows tweeting
While they fly joyously into the sky
Rainbow colours up the atmosphere
Cheering up the very beautiful daytime.
I close my eyes slowly
Trying to breathe in the happiness
And picture the splendid view on mind
Somehow I just can ‘t
I barely feel the fresh air
All the things that exist in my life
Have now frozen my weary little soul
The only thing I can hear
Is my heart mourning in deep remorse
While my mind is imagining
The poor world we ‘re living in today.
Why can ‘t the world be
As it ’s supposed to be?
As what I ‘ve seen right in front of my eyes?
Why must we pollute the Earth?
Why must we kill the nature?
Why must we hate each other?
When love doesn ‘t cost a single penny
Why must we let selfishness strike in?
I want to feel the peace again;
Live in real nature;
Hear the kids pelt, laugh
Once more together;
See another brand new day;
Run carelessly in freedom ’s grassland;
Pick more daisies -
As much as I need to hold somebody’s hand…

Aha~ you are indeed full of misery - silent sufferer…
Just silently sucking people’s blood.
This contrasts with those who would actively seek solutions - they write with more optimism.
Am I right?
