Tie a Rainbow On Your Heart

Tie a rainbow on your heart

the power of eyes
like an arrowhead
keep focus on
beautiful colors

but a heart

sharper
than the eyes
sensitively
give a birth
of a lust
to swallow all
the colorful hopes

life is a rainbow
coated layers of
beautiful colors

Look at those birds
Smoldering color 
spread peace

look at those dripping sweats
irrigate our green fields

look at those sparkling stars
luminous
stroking darkness night

they are part of our rainbow
decorate each page of
our passing days

tie a rainbow
on your heart
to bind tightly
every beautiful hopes

don’t give a chance
to the host laments
to come and take away
even a piece of
the color

tie a rainbow
on your heart
