A poem about visiting the yellow mountains in China, which includes Chinese pinyin

Huang Shan Mountain Blues

 

 

Up and Down

 

 

A Thousand steps

 

 

They lie hidden

 

 

In the cloudy yun

 

 

 

 

 

Shadow shapes loom

 

 

A few mortal steps

 

 

Beyond a clinging

 

 

Shi cai Path

 

 

 

 

 

Song Shu Limbs

 

 

Dipped in glassy drips

 

 

Wet hei trunks

 

 

An exclamation point

 

 

 

 

 

A deep green lu

 

 

Of Bonsai shu

 

 

Perched in a grey sea hai

 

 

(and he then)

 

 

 

 

 

YU Rain parts

 

 

The ocean yang

 

 

Rocky teeth Ya chi

 

 

Emerge Serrations

 

 

One upon the other

 

 

Across a Lao shi plain

 

 

(and he then)

 

 

 

 

 

The mist ascends

 

 

Pinnacles are gone

 

 

I bought a hong hat

 

 

With Chinese characters say

 

 

Zhong Guo Huang Shan

 

 

 

 

 

The emperor is in his heaven

 

 

Human ren clad

 

 

In yellow plastic

 

 

Zou walk as one

 

 

The precious

 

 

Xin path of life

 

 

Tian shi hen gao xing

 

The earth is very happy
