Scenery
Delia School of Canada , Tang , Joyce Tin Yan - 15
I was looking for that scenery Wide streets with black tiny cars Walking as slow as turtles Bikes with the smell of wheat baskets Riding with emaciated river A smile on faces
I forgot everything except for that alluring picture Now , I see different buildings with different culture The cars are running as fast as wild horses A struggle behind every face Many things that I don ’ t recall Except for that wooden boat I have seen before
My body moves automatically And I start to recover my old memories Row , row , row a boat Boat walking slowly
I had seen fishers catching fish by handmade nets Laughs between large boats and tiny boats Sky was broad and only blue Wind blows to my sight and ends my review
Now , all disappeared . Fishers are using machine , not nets . Yelling between heavy and soft boats . Sky is narrow and colour by fancy lights , not blue .
The sun is passing its work to the moon And I finally find my memories .
