ITION TSAI

KITE

Spring breeze kissed my face

Hills full of colorful flowers

Swirling shadow covered the earth in front of

Both hands in line

Better pay close attention

Do not follow others gone

Arbitrarily

Sun drying my back

Open both hands

Try any fight on

Got to have a little square shadow

Let you shielded

Look forward to your cherished tears

Butterflies fly over the valley

Can did not see any over high mountains

Bees never know

How sweet of honey

Gather nectar

One after another

Line in your hands

When gripping.

When opening

Fly through the air

Far shouting

Thought, still at heart

Carefully pull the strings, and slowly care

Peripheral vison drift farther and farther away

Heartless dream

Only eat a small mouth

Will know that this thing so bitter 

SHY LIKE A MIMOSA

The bending trails leisurely cheat the wind blowing cool

Fluffy grass woven carpet densely

How fortunate, Fight for the rights unearthed head secretly

Under the shadow, that glamorous can’t hide

People do not understand the heart should never

Freeze of that etiquette

Not too many excuses, always looked down in silence

Although with a covered body of thorns

Listen to that sound exclaimed, mimosa, mimosa

Tease the curious pink flowers

Audible, Laughter-induced

My-Little could it be that do not take my dominant gene

Mouth wide open willful, Cater to the spring

Smiling,

Maybe she was laughing at her mother's shyness

Maybe she just could not hide her own beauty

Maybe have to leave the shade

Under the sun, to find

Indulge in a dialogue with the wind

When she was so proud

Too beautiful to abandon herself

In the bottom of my heart, how reconciled

Delivered my daughter to that gust

Mother's heart soft cascaded like water

Hand stays high up to the sky

so that all people can see my daughter wore pink dress

Dancing with the wind, Abnormal elegant

Note: Mimosa, shy of nature, when be touched, always bow in silence, but, endowed with natural beauty too hard to hide. 

     

JUNE LONGAN

Apart from the edge of the home tea garden

Under the old Longan tree

Where to find the wind

More refreshing

June broiling, those not yet ripe Longan with white core

Reminds, mother, me think of

You

In particular, the wind was so

Slow and warm

Apart from the edge of the home tea garden

Under the old Longan tree

Scenes of the past figure, waiting for me to recall

Rare so clearly, make eyes gently closed

June broiling, those not yet ripe Longan with white core

Reminds, father, me think of

You

In particular, the wind was so

Buoyant and circling

A pot of spring tea

Hanging on the backyard tree

Old little chair

Two pairs of eyes, wrinkled skin

Stare each other

Common thought brings up to mind

When you were a kid

A long way to go to school

The pair of barefoot, the spindly legs

Nowadays, across the oceans

Struggle in a foreign country

Really makes parents had to think back

You

Like a ripe Longan with black core

Full, A mouthful of sweet

Especially, the wind was so

Slight
