Poetry: My quest | eight square words

My pursuit

Shepherd of Tianshan Mountain (Yucheng, Henan)

I want you to admit that I am a poet

Tread on the dew of the middle of the night

Pick up the sun at dawn

I want you to admit that I am a writer

Dig up the dirt of your hometown

Fired modern celadon porcelain

I want you to admit that I am a friend

Raise a glass with you

Drop a drop of wine willing to be punished

I want you to admit that I am a comrade-in-arms

Youth eight thousand miles road clouds and moon

Treasure your comrades-in-arms

Cap badge collar badge forever spring and autumn ...

Poetry: My quest | eight square words

Eight square words

Xu Ke (Zhejiang)

Since there was movable type printing

Pass down these eight words

Behind the lights of thousands of homes

The last of the money and things

There is no affection between men and women

Go with stay while doing a choice of topics

Good and evil after a spark

Those eight words

Will definitely be on time

Exit at critical moments

We're all here for your own good

Generation after generation is spreading

Whether it is a warning or an exhortation

Whether it is a neutral sentence or an imperative sentence

Good balance for the elderly and juniors

Good or bad

The person who experiences it is deep down

There is a tabernacle

Life and soul are on the ferry

Human affairs in the world

All are interlocked in knots

Mood and anger with impermanent mourning

What is seen and not seen is the end in eternity

Before and after life and death left and right

heaviness

Too heavy

The word count is not available and cannot be counted

Everything was in three days

There is wind and rain to accompany each other
