Poem
by just looking at it from the distance
a  picturesque view captures right away our hearts
a stair like going up to heaven on its magnificent appearance
a cogent power beckoning every tourist  to visit and become a part
of  this  historical place  and one of our world’s beauty spots

the People’s Republic of China stands tall with pride and glory
in possession of this gigantic dragon-formed and walled stair
a product of their ancestors’ concerted effort to protect their country
from heartless invaders who want to ruin without care
so, they’d built it with masonry and rocks strong enough and fair

let’s all go and experience this great and wonderful place
anytime of the year but winter is still the best, I  bet
climbing on every  step of the walled stair with nuance pace
so lofty but a gentle breeze will extricate ourselves from sweat
more power and energy will be saved and it’s a challenge a bit

Great Wall of China has been built and renovated until Ming’s Dynasty
a creative work of art by the Chinese and  their great masterpiece
along the mountain sides to the top winding up with majesty
so impressively  built as if trying to reach an endless place
a breathtaking beauty inviting us to capture tenacious memories

climbing on  Great Wall is so much fun and enjoyable
a stop on each pillar shows a full view of the scenery giving us a great tour
a part along  our way up is a long chain of  padlocks for lovers and couples
an everlasting love, peace, bliss and everything they’ll wish for
believing that leaving a padlock and key there, wishes will be granted for sure

the most challenging and rewarding part is the incentive we’ll get
if we climb and reach the peak, a certificate for us to remember
so, to make our experiences with travel expenses commensurate
let’s all gather our strength and be determined as great explorers
for us to get one of the most precious moments in life to cherish forever

Note: 
The composition of this poem was also inspired by my wonderful experience in this place when we’d our  school tour last March 7-10, 2011 at Beijing. Both great happiness and terrible sadness I’ve felt that time. My happiness to see the beauty of the place but terrible sadness was deep inside of me because I was thinking of my father who was already at his critical health condition and, I went back home to visit him just after coming back from our joyful tour.
