Today, December 27th, is the tenth day of 11th month of the lunar calendar


Poem Artwork

Putting a gnomon in the centre of sundial

When the sun is precisely at a zenith,

We thus circumscribe a perfect round

Without any obliquity and angularity.

 

Making a point at the very centre,

We bring ourselves to what is known

As 'a perfect conduct in a daily cycle';

We thus maintains ruther good control

Of our many entangled notions and thoughts.

 

He who was born with his flameable temper

(Fire correlates with the 2nd half of today),

What comes out from him will soon

Come back to him as a multifold flame,

As long as his relations with others

Are formed on the energy burning.

 

Thus, his upgrowth is fully depended

On the natures of other men, and then

Since Fire's overgrowth can burns all

And everyone down, it is the best

To keep in store some Water

For times to come.

 

Once there is a chance to get good fortune,

How can we be free from scare

Of getting what is known as "misfortune"

Saying nothing of repentance,

Which is worse among other strains.

Year's end inspires timely thoughts that we find intricately inscribed within the lines of this poem as year's end comes full circle. Happy New Year, Alex.
