It is ridiculous to me.
It is ridiculous to me.
I saw a clay wick,
fighting with the night to stay alive.
I saw a bird, badly hurt in wings,
trying hard to fly.
I was surprised to see a helpless blind,
trying to cross the road.
I saw the smiling of the moon
through the coudy sky.
But it is ridiculous to me
when a small piece of cloud,
covers the face of the fierce sun.
