Be
surrounded by
mountains
lighthouse
stands the same place
starlight
waves
seagull family
pebbles
wet moss
low forest
stairs
sunrise and sunset
a cliff
a winding path
fish
old small ship
a lighthouse keeper
are moving
a true friend
navigator
not visible
good luck
when seen
the best luck
the light of lighthouse
different from the city lights
joy of sharing
with all beings
in the fear and loneliness of the wreck
after the storm
See.

Wife warns
"you:
get angry very well
do not take care of appearance
do not know the power of money
human relationship are not good
eating food is too picky
just say what want to say
selfish
repetitive force
and intolerance.

nevertheless
i live in peace

the reason:
with old parents in the 90's
under the May sun
hanging the laundry
sharing the happy conversation
even in the COVID-19 pandemic.

abandoned by the bank
one branch of the Lucky Tree
brought home
and
divided it into three parts
and then
filled three glass jars with clean water
and stuck them one by one
One day
Two days
Three days
one week
A month later
as luck
at the very top
sprouted from the top
again
A few days passed and
I was surprised
the center of the stem was hollowed out
And then
little by little,
it was becoming a leaf.

mother married
at the age of 19
lived for 70 years
father was a very strong
he took care of all the money
he dealt with bad people
he was a teacher and a farmer
for my mother
as the years passed
my father became unable to do
any work for himself
he asked her
to untie his hands and feet
to free
my mother didn't listen to my father's pleas
to stay with him
until the end.

Pablo
who has been without
friends for decades
a city officer
told me
“Behind the parking lot
The tree is old and
and the leaves are causing
a nuisance to the neighborhood
we don't know when it's going to fall
we need to cut it down now"
I said, "he lives in New York"
But Pablo always saying
“Not today...not today
It has been years."
