Winter Solstice Festival

Winter Solstice Festival
Winter Solstice features the longest night and shortest day;
The Yin reaches its pinnacle while the Yang starts to play.
The festival was once celebrated as the start of a new year;
And now it’s the cultural legacy we all cheer.
The exchange between cold and warmth is preset by Nature;
Who can change the course of rise and fall in his favor?
Sweet dumplings and Jiaozi separate the north from the south;
Dare I ask when you can ride the moon back to our house?
