Mid-Autumn Thoughts 1
Dry leaves now fall, blossoms and hues;
Yes I recall life's sensuous cues.
Grand harvest fills, now autumn sums;
A calm joy spills, a festive charm.
On eastern shores, we gather round;
Celebrate more of ties that ground.
Festive moods spring seasonal change;
Summer did fling mid-autumn range.
Note Chinese way: this classic style
Spreads festive sway with moonlit smiles.
Mid-autumn moon floats like a pearl;
A glorious boon must yet unfurl.
Tonight, new moon feels radiant bright;
Spreads night's high noon, love's sparkling sight.
Fond wish for joy, fair maidens' cast;
True love's employ to wed at last!
Fair sweet hearts meet with anxious pulse;
Watch wit now greet chance and impulse.
