Further and further away I'm claiming my intention and say 'I'll stop flowing with the play' No more with being belayed It's the heart not the body, that I say Further and further away Like river that never replays I've followed, too long, along the way Now, I'll stop flowing with the play But still, looking afar, with a piece of ray But still, you're flowing, without delay Further and further away Just the time is needed as a pay Not in eyesight, nothing stay If I stop flowing with the play In time, red thread will be frayed Just memories are left to turn gray Further and further away I'll stop flowing with the play...

Second Version Blue Villanelle

Further and further away, I’m claiming my intention and say “I will stop flowing with the play"

"No more with being belayed," It’s the heart not the body, that I say… Further and further away,

Like a river, flowing and never replay I have followed for too long… along the way… Now, I will stop flowing with the play

Please retrace…. deeply, I pray… Somehow, it’s just a dream that I portray, Further and further away

Time will drag us away From my vision, nothing stays If I stop flowing with the play

In time, red thread will be frayed Just memories are left to turn grey Further and further away I’ll stop flowing with the play…

    To be or not to be
    The thought's clinging within me
    When will it go or to set free?
    
    Desire, Hatred and Delusion are spreading spree
    However, whoever may touch, smell, taste, hear and see
    To be or not to be
    
    Happiness, hardliness, outcome of the deeds come consequently
    Birth, death, rebirth, re-death are rolling to eternity
    When can we go and set free?
    
    Heavenly living're most people's wish and plea
    But, human being could rebirth as a flea
    To be or not to be
    
    Friends, lovers, families bind through the knees
    Passion, pride, love, fortune, prestige, praise ties through "me"
    How will they go and let "me" free?
    
    Eight noble paths were disclosed to all thee
    Mindfulness, selfless will lead all to glee
    To be or not to be
    Then all will go and set to free ...

    Actually, when I posted my poem that is entitled in English, only a few people will come and read it. 20.gif20.gif So I feel really glad every time I receive any reply for those of my poems.

    Actually, I've just realized that my habit of thinking a line with 7~9 syllables from Thai poem (mostly, I write 'กลอนแปด', so it's kind of build this habit up insensibly) really did transfer to my English poem too.
    It can actually be seen in 'Blue Villanelle' which I've just realized about it after reread it again and again so many times.20.gif11.gif12.gif36.gif

    Your English poem with Thai atmosphere is so sweet and smooth (to my Thai sense20.gif)
