버찌 맛 다시다

                                                                                                詩  최영화

                                         보도블록 얼룩진 반점

                                         발길 멈추다  

                                         고개 들어 올려보니                  

                                         오달지게 달린

                                         농익은 버찌

                                         버찌                                

                                         남산「조선신궁」               

                                         벚나무 타다 산림간수에게 들켜 뛰다      

                                         신창(新倉)안 골목

                                         까맣게 물든 이빨

                                         마주보며 웃었다.

                                         버찌

                                         남산동 축대 높은 일본 집

                                         벚나무 돌팔매

                                         쪽바리 애들과 싸우다

                                         본정통(本町通*) 골목

                                         까맣게 물든 이빨

                                         무용담 자랑 신났다

                                         고개 숙여

                                         밟혀 뭉개진 버찌 아깝고

                                         고개 들어

                                         버찌 알알 탐난다

                                         벚나무 타고 싶은 발돋움

                                         버찌물 번지는

                                         추억을 달고

                                         갈길 잊은 채 

                                         위아래 번갈라 보며

                                         아련한 버찌 맛

                                         다시고 섰다.
