August sorrow
White ducks swim in the yellow pond. The sorghum stalks are just above their heads.

White ducks swim in the yellow pond.
The sorghum stalks are just above their heads.
How can this beating heart be placed?
A narrow road in the field, this sorrow in August
The sky is washed by last night's rain, the hillock
The sun shines and leaves a shadow.
The sheep follow the shepherd into the village.
The well is covered by a big tree, and it looks like a heart!
No one has ever said anything about August.
The summer is over, and it is not yet autumn.
But I look at the fields and the melons on the earthen walls.
I still don't understand how life and dreams are connected.
