Caught in a sudden shower, spring sobs,
while flowers fall everywhere–
even in my heart.
Watch, as the clouds drift high over the budding branches
until dusk descends with nightfall.
The sweet, sad rain falls endlessly
as do my tears on the carpet of flowers.
translated by Jaihiun Kim & Ronald B. Hatch
Most lovely.
Glad you liked it.
Welcome dear.
Beautiful melancholy, Leonard.
Glad you liked it.
The words have such beauty
I’m glad you liked it, Anna.
I love this poem.
I’m glad. He’s one of my favorite Korean poets.
I see why! Peace.
