Half moon
connecting
two eraser windows
In front of
the green leaves of
the zelkova
lived the harsh winter

The morning fog rain
wraps around the buds
tickling the branch and bark
approaching from far away...

Refrigerator noise
drops of water
falling and scattering moans
tinnitus

Will a world where we can enjoy
such a warm
rich
new
quiet kiss
coming again
can we make a government
rises and sets like the sun?

More and More
The sky outside the window
gray and fades marching
Toward afternoon.
Yonah Jeong Apr 20
To endure a cruel day
after the prayer
sit on an old table
collect both hands
look out the window
like the rising sun
Hot and Cruel
the day begins
drinking a coffee scent
let's open the door of the day
with only heart
The quiet heart shakes
The turbulent sea,
i see an invisible workplace
Well -grilled
as the white bread pops out
"good morning"
Surprised by greetings
Like greeting me while eating
also i give a gesture to the day
it will be life.

running weeks
running months
running years
running lives

Songs in the elevator
Yonah Jeong Oct 2024
In open of the river
    to the sea of orchestra
With future of present
    in her coolness

In close of the skies
    to the heaven of orchestra
With past of present
    in her warmness.

The Unnamed Flower
Yonah Jeong May 12
In front of my desk
unclean
glass window
one day last year
very small and fragile
flower
stem
leaves visible

While writing a poem

And then autumn came
And then winter came
And when winter came
All erased and forgotten

Spring has come
Spring's March march has passed
Spring's April has come
Now May

I was writing a poem
and the words didn't come to me
so I tried to meet them
and I looked at the ***** window
and it was broken and through the blinds
I could see
stems and leaves and
flowerless trees that I hadn't seen before

They sway in the wind
and greet me
with hot teardrops
with stained palms
and send me
the words of the fragmented world

I am busy writing them down.

being alone 1
Yonah Jeong Nov 2024
connecting the islands
unviewable
seagulls
clouds
the wind
waves
starlight
trees
sands
fish
seaweed
and
unsuspecting travelers'
deep, deep and Deep
in their hearts
stillness.

love can survive

your confession

It is not enough.
Yonah Jeong Feb 20
I'm so heartbroken today
My body is tired
I come to the study room
to look at my favorite poetry
Narrow but not narrow
This room from beginning to end
No matter how many times
I search
I can't find her book of poems
I take a bath and come back
I search again, but I can't find it
I use cell phone flash
but I can't find it
Should I check Amazon?
I'm about to give up
Just one more time
I sit at my desk and try to think her face
Poverty, hunger, disease, oppression
And in the midst of separation
without losing warmth and love
She wrote poems
in addition to
The landscapes and people in the poem
she loved them
I make up my mind
after a bath
On the right side of desk
I look at
poetry books of my favorite poets
And then
I see the hem of her blue skirt
with numerous square black dots
I quickly tug it up
I finally found her
"Collected Poems Marya Zaturenska Pulitzer Prize poet"
No matter what happens
Sleep with me tonight
I'll make sure to read it all
Tomorrow".

The wild raspberry
Yonah Jeong May 27
Baseball field ground
Diamond
my holy rood
stuck and standing in dignity
pale green leaves
Reddish-brown stems
3 deep white petals
Centered in the middle
raspberries
with a triangular stability
in the May noon sunshine
******* the inflammation
from our lives
sending us
warm greetings from afar.

About him 4
Yonah Jeong Feb 13
His voice
Always hoarseness
His songs destructive
But not building
He is a modernist
Above all
Today always the same
With fear alone
Move our bodies
Because he is drunkard
Always
Moving head from side to side.

Buried in the ground
Yonah Jeong Sep 2024
In a storm

(bent
Broken
Shaken

Bending but not breaking
Shaken but not broken
broken

buried in the ground
raising a sprout
strength

The power of love
Make a node
and make the wind sing)

Doesn't it make Wasteland into Loam?
Yonah Jeong Sep 2024
It's too hot
windows up and
nonchalantly
I look at the red brick wall next door

in the meantime
a fragile maple tree trunk
holding the square holes of the mosquito net
and is climbing up

My room
My desk
My bed
looking at my clothes

How happy am I?

Even in the midst of the winter to come
without pulling down the blind
Nor will I lower the windows

I'll be able to say hello to the neighbors
I've never spoken to before

What a joy!

Can i do it?

WAVING IN THE WIND

Now,
I will never be lonely at night.

Flower Hymn
Yonah Jeong May 2
you share Sunbeam
day and night
as a soldier in battle
game of changing in
hatred of storm

sink hole shows
tear and fear
bridges of love
bringing us sailing
in you & me to the future

If we don't have them
pearl songs
around the mid-winter sea.

Wow I am their enemy
I looked again
I am becoming their friend.

About peace
Yonah Jeong May 25
peace is the absence of loneliness
where there is no loneliness, there is peace
                        but
don't try to remove loneliness
make peace with loneliness

that is a little value of life.
