Growing

Watching
as parent
almost like standing
at mid altitude of a snow mountain
drop by drop
melting from the early Spring
is it spring yet
when can’t summer come sooner

Growing
from little
look up to patent
when could I grow to their heights
do what they want to do
and not bring orders only to comply
this or that
almost as snow
slowly piling up on the mountain
winter after each counted winter
at some point
Just want to gather enough strength
and potential
To fully burst into an avalanche
Dashing down as far away as possible
into the whole wide world

When we are into the world
far far away from the mountain
treasured as home
We couldn’t even care for our aging parent
could we still climb back up the pinnacle

When that spring finally comes
the burst out of growth into the blue seas
out of sight for seasons
the snow mountain back to its coolness
to even chillness
as if seasons are not changing any more

But the whole air is still flowing
whether it’s a hello snowflake from the vapor off the sea
or the melting droplet of wish delivered from the mountain
connections and networks
are always in hearts and souls
circulating
