A Man Walks On the Field of Good Harvest

although a man walks on the field of abundance
it saddens him because these good crops won’t do 
any good for him 

the leaves go
roll on the field 
carried by the wind with no memories
the man goes 
stepping on the leaves as well 
with no memories worth keeping   

abundance of the field won’t be a sign
for the road ahead, if it’s a light or a shadow    
to the man who has many rivers to cross 

the field of abundance is not a hope 
or a way leading to a promised tomorrow 
to the man who has many mountains to go over 

now the man is standing both arms stretched open in the evening glow 
became an abandoned scarecrow in the middle of a forgotten field
