Sonnet 098



Sonnet 098
Laijon Liu 20160522

You make seasons of summer and fall
You make a heart bloom in gentle rain
You tell a young man to pick the prettiest flower
And a girl wears it in her hair like a jewel
Birds suddenly sing a high pitched jubilant
Rosy petals rain like falling kisses, redecorate some world
Everything and all things turn to bliss
Old men revisit their good old days long lost
No, it’s not flowers that make one smile
Nor wine is sweet, nor garden holds lush spring
It's you, planted in me, sprouting now
That makes this world blossom everywhere
You make two apart connect
You make us wait forever with hope
