Pleasure Dreams

The first four characters were formed in the night but during my jog the next morning, the poem was completed…

1 湖水烟霧鎖舟前 The fog and mists of the lake engulf the path of the boat,
2 於心難捨別殘眠 My heart could not bear to leave my crumbling slumber.
3 醒見素衣紅塵蓋 Now awake, the red dust of the earth is clothed in white.
4 寧可夢裡醉千年 I rather be drunk for a thousand years in my dreams.

1 The mists and fog represents life’s obstacles that blocks one’s future

2 Taking refuge in sleep.

3 White clothing implies the color of the fog and mists and is also a color for mourning.

4 Escapism
