Bruce Lee

Things I See

Alone I wander in silence
And in the sky the two escaped parakeets
Fall from fear of fishermen.
 
The two fish swim;
One white, one gold.
From the picket fence
A pink rose reaches out to the sun.
Among the flowers, two butterflies fly.
They might know where they want to go,
But they do not know how to get there.
