The Golden List
Lost dragon head upon the list of gold,
Ming dynasty's wise men left untold.
How to follow in their footsteps and succeed,
Without falling prey to greed.
Unfulfilled dreams and aspirations,
Cannot be met by wild sensations.
Why lament over loss and grief ?
For the poets and scholars, a life of relief.
Amidst the streets and alleys of fireworks and bloom,
A painted screen provides a lover's room.
Thankful for the one who shares your heart,
Together, a life of love and art.
Savor the joys of youth while they last,
Don't trade your name for a life so fast.
For the writers and artists who will always remain,
Their legacy is one of honor and fame. |
