The furthest distance in the world
Is not between life and death
But when I stand in front of you
Yet you don’t know that
I love you
The furthest distance in the world
Is not when I stand in front of you
Yet you can’t see my love
But when undoubtly knowing the love from both
Yet cannot be together
The furthest distance in the world
Is not being apart while being in love
But when I plainly cannot resist the yearning
Yet pretending you have never been in my heart
The furthest distance in the world
Is not struggling against the tides
But using one’s indifferent heart
To dig an uncrossable river
for the one who loves you

Toiling Farmers
Farmers weeding at noon,
Sweat down the field soon.
Who knows food on a tray,
Thanks to their toiling day
李坤
悯农
锄禾日当午,
汗滴禾下土。
谁知盘中餐,
粒粒皆辛苦?
A Tranquil Night
Abed, I see a silver light,
I wonder if it's frost aground.
Looking up, I find the moon bright;
Bowing, in homesickness I'm drowned.
静 夜 思
- 李 白
床 前 明 月 光 ,疑 是 地 上 霜 。举 头 望 明 月 ,低 头 思 故 乡 。
I seek but seek in vain,
I search and search again;
I feel so sad , so drear,
so lonely, without cheer.
寻寻觅觅,
冷冷清清,
凄凄惨惨戚戚。
李清照

Coming Home ( a Tang poem)
I left home young and not till old do I come back,
My accent is unchanged, my hair no longer black.
The children don’t know me,whom I meet on the way
Where do you come from,revered sir they smile and say.
贺知章
I look for her in vain.
When all at once I turn my head,
I find her there where lantern light is dimly shed.
众里寻他千百度, 蓦然回首, 那人却在, 灯火阑珊处。
青玉案. 元夕
--- 辛弃疾
How long will the bright moon appear Wine-cup in hand, I ask the sky. I do not know what time of year, It would be tonight in the palace on high.
水调歌头
明月几时有?把酒问青天 不知天上宫阙,今夕是何年?
——— 苏轼
If you would ask me how my sorrow has increased, Just see the over-brimming river flowing east!
问君能有几多愁,恰是一江春水向东流。
———李煜

What is love
Love is giving,
Love is living,
Love is taking someone’s load(负担),
Love helps them along the road.
Love is caring,
Love is sharing,
Love will seek the best for others,
Love treats everyone as brothers.
A large lady from Corfu,
Wished to travel to Peru.
But Whether buses or trains
Or boarding aero-planes,
There wasn’t a door she’d get through.
As we know, poems are mostly written to
show people’s emotions.. In Chinese , we
have “ 诗言志,诗言情,诗歌合为事而作.”
That is, people write poems for different
reasons, then we have different kind of
poems.
Can you sing some English songs that are poems.
Right here waiting—— 理查 马克斯
Oceans apart day after day And I slowly go insane I hear your voice on the line But it doesn't stop the pain If I see you next to never How can we say forever Wherever you go Whatever you do I will be right here waiting for you Whatever it takes Or how my heart breaks
I took for granted, all the times That I though would last somehow I hear the laughter, I taste the tears But I can't get near you now Oh, can't you see it baby You've got me go in' crazy I wonder how we can survive This romance But in the end if I'm with you I'll take the chance waiting for you

Little star
Twinkle, twinkle little star, How I wonder what you are. Up above the world so high, Like a diamond in the sky. Twinkle, twinkle little star, How I wonder what you are. When the blazing sun is gone, When the nothing shines up on. Then you show your little light, Twinkle, twinkle all the night.
Rhyme & rhythm are essential to poetry.
Twinkle twinkle little star
How I wonder what you are,
Up above the world so high
Like a diamond in the sky.
