Even Life Has Color and Taste
Is life only made of smiles that entice love?
Think of smell and images:
scented flowers and pretty landscapes;
stroll down those paths
and closely watch robins and larks,
doesn't their melody echo in any grove?
Life can't be touched, but it's felt as
the heartbeat inside of us: steady and assuring;
it has rhythm and vibrancy like the lovely seasons
that add charm to our daily living.
Pensive and lonely moments are rare in our relentless haste,
not tasting a fruit that can delight our palates regardless its form;
not breathing in the scent of jasmines and roses after a brief storm...
and doing so we surely deny that even life has color and taste.
