Notes About The Poem

- When Autumn Passes Away -

The freedom to love is threatened
                              Is it possible to goes for happiness
                                   in a world of deep injustice?

                           There is a gray shutter on the mountain
                          before the sun suddenly lights up the day
                                Smiling, whistling and soft tones
                        The delightful taste of autumn's sweet fruits

                             Autumn does not regret its short time
                                  The "Scream" that was spun 
                                         by colorful leaves
                                Sip on a hot Blackcurrant toddy
                                Autumn closed the door quietly
                             and leaves the ice key on the stairs

                                    Death, with its kiss of fire
                                   When the angels of heaven
                                  sprinkle sugar on the ground
                               Winter drives through your dream
                                Feel the silence and the absence,
                                      appreciate the presence
