To Be a Tree.

" If there is an afterlife, I would like to be a tree, Standing forever, neither sorrows nor joys.

Half is buried in the soil peacefully, Half is floating on air delightfully; Half throws the shade for passerbys' cool, Half enjoys the sunshine.

Quiet still and proud. Never rely on, never look for.

If there is an afterlife, I would like to be a breeze, That moment could be an eternity.

No sentimental feelings, no affectionate eyes.

Half wanders in the rain, Half travels in spring scenery;

When I feel lonely, I just go far away alone, Sweeping all soft miss, never yearn, never love.
