Homecoming


This came about while my mind was wandering during a calligraphy practice…

1 七夕雙星銀河回
On Seventh Night, twain stars shall meet in the Silver River,
2 九月重陽金花滿 And golden blooms filled Double Ninth in profusion.
3 一年相隔喜笑淚 One year of separation, now be tears of mirth,
4 萬里急趕聚合歡 Ten thousand miles hurrying back for the joy of reunion.

 2 “golden flowers” refers to chrysanthemums which is prolific during the Double Ninth Festival.
