The Weeping Children
Yonah Jeong Apr 7
Could not see tomorrows
Could not hear past
Could not say present

They are stripped by tomorrows
They are struck by past
They are arrested by present

Time's all gifts stay beyond the Time
With weeping tunnel
Without lights and lines...

About Love
Yonah Jeong May 9
Stars aren't forgotten
they just fade
because they're nothing

Your shadows
give to us

What our Hudson River
take out
With FDR

Stars don't fade
they are just forgotten
because they are not nothing.

about bird
Yonah Jeong Sep 2024
Birds are
fly easily
They don't fly hard

birds are
beautiful
not flashy

The bird is
is where it is supposed to be
it is not where it is told to be

birds are
where it is
hidden from view

birds are
flying throught the sky
No flying around in the woods

The bird are
talks like a child
they don't threaten like adults

Who is chasing the bird?

The Taste of Ink
Yonah Jeong Nov 2024
Ink,
flavor that still tempts me
color green,
and black,
red,
but there is no white
like there is no black note
two flavors we cannot see
to make a better world
circle,
a triangle,
squares,
but we cannot see them
drawn in pen
words in ink will be
tomorrow?

Yonah Jeong Oct 2024
Love shines through talent
Love is not made like that
It is a shining thing in itself

When winter comes
Yonah Jeong Oct 2024
sunshine on the Wind
Birds flapping their wings
sound of a luxury car door opening
waving leaves
under the shade of a tree
sound of deer footsteps
languid afternoon time
headlights
falling leaves
Skunk bugle sound
Mole fumbling
with my Eyes
The blades of grass will tremble.

I
my favorite poet's poem

I discovered
I changed “aim” to “enemy.”
while trying to fix it
right away
I fell into deep thought

my enemy was my aim.

about Imagination
Yonah Jeong Jan 22
I think
imagination important
in everything we do
If you don't have imagination,
you're a machine

I think
imagination starts with reality
and ends with reality

I think
Imagination
power to change the current reality
and create a new, improved reality

I think
imagination an amazing ability
that only humans have
But unfortunately,
as we are dominated by machines
our imagination

I think
imagination is getting weaker and weaker

I think
Imagination doesn't change
reality is an illusion
it is fantasy or delusion swirls
in the minds of modern people

I think
Imagination
this an unimaginable blessing
If we don't turn a blind eye to reality.

with a troubled heart
Yonah Jeong Nov 2024
in the gray-purple clouds
a eternal flower
with lips
blue wind
sending migratory birds
flying in curves
the birds
over the sea
in a half-moon sailboat
looking ahead to the future
looking ahead from it
beneath the ship
an orange waves
flows into the flower garden
of a loved one.

About Four Seasons
Yonah Jeong Apr 19
Reading is
the hardest thing

It is work of experiencing
value of existence

and its high and low

So
as we get older

we distance ourselves from reading

and only a few

still fall in love with reading
more and more
as the days go by

Spring, summer, fall, and winter

Oh! Reading,
a privilege unique to humans.

And the road to it is bathing moonlight

An unseen man who has long since left.

a Sonnet of Love

swaying in the wind

watching their dances
in the early fall.

A song for Solitude
Yonah Jeong Nov 2024
solitudes that are not lonely
an organic sleeping pill
anyone can have
anyone can care for by it
anyone can be anyone's parent with it
, lt is to be
anyone's child,
anyone's friend
A flower in the field
A slice of bread In the tears
rocks and streams
flowing deep in the trees
hidden in them and says
"You are welcome"
to the frozen streets of winter
you are windows
in dignity
under the curtains
Your commuting sounds of the night
You
our innocent laughter
Now,
The day begins with
your springtime till the end.

Sun and Love
Yonah Jeong Nov 2024
I have never seen such a beautiful
sunrise like sundown
sky like a quilt
clouds like a quilt
free as the wheels of a train
with the same sing
sunrise to sunset
sunset to sunrise
coloring the air, it flows

I have never seen such a beautiful
parting like love
sky as a pillow
cloud as a pillow
free as the windows of a train
with the same sing
love to parting
parting to love
coloring the world, it flows.

Romance
Yonah Jeong May 10
in the eye strawberry
beside the wooden fence
between wildflowers
I ate it alone
skin fragrant lips
and four seasons
favorite your color
They kissed in the darkness
of the day
to record the future of pleasure
sneaky.

Blue Sky Expanse
nameless
Two birds fly away

Ahead
Behind

above
below

to go in a straight line
Go in a curve

Toward the ground
Toward the heaven

clear,
it is obvious that they are in love

as they are rushing toward the sea
together

I can't see its waves anymore,
they are going away
again into the clouds.

The Artist
Yonah Jeong May 4
It's a rainy day
the spring rain is pouring down
like a torrential downpour

and I'm driving

Drops of water
thick raindrops
tap on the front windshield

Wipers are working automatically
bouncing off grain size drops
left and right

I feel
crouch and wipe
unfallen drops on my face and arms.
