Htetmyet Ne' Ye'

From the first glimpse of light,
The first breath of air,
The first echo of sound,
You were there from the start.
...

In Thy Embrace

Grass damp,
Sky grey,
...

I fear we will grow old,
When we get separated,
Turn our search to gold,
Never coming in anyone’s wait.
...

Perspiration forms like glistening snow and hail,
Except there is no snow and there is no rain.
The electric iron, steaming, exhales,
A metallic monster, amidst the heat of the day.
...

Evening air envelops the garden,
A misty blanket of hail and drizzle,
As the winds balloon through the curtains,
Amidst the distending shower, little by little.
...

The raging winds howl through the air,
A gargantuan-turned monster,
The rain bombards our man-made lairs,
Every drop crescendoing stronger.
...

I set afoot the torrid tarmac,
where all the ruckus layeth,
An untamed, barbaric bellow.
But the hassle remains,
...

He, who excels in the heart,
Never dull nor cold nor old,
A butterfly lying on a stone,
Up until the end, struggles last.
...
