Rose Lu ( Bing hua ) - Forbidden Fruit

2014-06-17 1

In the Garden of Eden
A bright blossom
Bears a smiling red fruit

That Unables the green leaves around it
To hide their greed

But a wind from afar
Picks that apple without a hitch
And carries away
The floating-off shade of Eve

Leaving behind a faint scent of the forbidden fruit
Lingering on
In the empty Garden

Rose Lu ( Bing hua )
