I Am Chinese


It is time to eat mooncakes and admire the moon.

At first I thought you were translating Chinese, until I saw how the English words rhymed. So I presume it is the the other way?

@novembermoon That is a nice tune. I do not know any Chinese, though.

@JoyfulSilence it's ok. The poem is hard to read in its original. It was only when I read it in English that I finally understood it myself. 😂

@novembermoon So maybe the translator altered it here and there to make it more poetic, and make it rhyme.

Thanks for sharing.

@novembermoon Sometimes I look at the moon or the sun and think it is the same moon or sun you look at, although at different times, and it makes myself happy.
what is a mooncake?

@DuchessOfMapleSyrup
Most have lotus seed paste. Sweet. Eaten in wedges and go well with Chinese tea.

Lovely handwriting! Is that yours? :)
