My Golden Spoon

My Husband
My Golden Spoon!

When I was swimming in the waters, I saw a boat to swim towards.
I never knew that it would become my lifeline,
though it was just a piece of wood.

It stayed with me, accepting all my thoughts.
The breeze once opened its eyes
and taught me to talk.

— Poor thing, it carried so many droplets of water;
I wonder how much it suffered in the water.

Once upon a day, I fell in love,
and I met the same water again.

I searched for my lifeboat yesterday,
trying to understand what was so special about
this “best piece of wood.”

And my mind finally realized—
it was my “Golden Spoon.”
