Nameless little flowers.

Picture from; Gettyimages.




Nameless little flower.


As I was returning home from cutting grass,a light rain was falling,


I saw flowers by the roadside, glistering with dewdrops


and wrote this poem,


wild flower


hither and thither


like lost buttons


scattered by the roadside


they do not have chrysanthemums


gold curls


nor peonies


dazzling looks


they have only small flowers


and thin weak leaves


yet their faint fragrance


is dissolved into beautiful spring day


my poems


are like this nameless little flower


following the wind and rain of the season


quietly blooming


in this lonely world.


(Gu Cheng,1971, Shandong)
