Oak And Reed

Some pretend that they are lovers

But I can see

only ashes sinking in cold river

Who can light with their hearts 

Without being extinguished

By tempests and floods?

Love is steel and tenderness

Like Oak and reed

Aflame yet nourishing

Flee liars and cowards

So that no echo

Can retrieve your words

Shogui Love

With the kindness and correction of
