Poem Artwork

When you have a pleasure you must enjoy it;

Once you get the right time—don’t waste it!

Although it is said one has a hundred years,

Can one fills up all thirty-six thousand days

And the same number of nights? Am I right?

Your staying in the world lasts only a while,

All these talks of cash—don't make a fuss!

The last chapter of the ‘Book of Filial Piety’

Sets out the parental love as a thankless job

And that’s exactly what I get the hang of life

But at the very end, alas, of my severe trials.
