For poetry lovers

Early this morning

Visited the editorial office this morning. With tears in my eyes, I remember the old days. The drafty rooms. The communal rice bowls were never full.

Visited the editorial office early this morning.
Tears welling up remembering the old days
The four-level rooms are windy. (1)
The collective rice bowl is never full in the morning or noon.

Give each other handkerchiefs (2)
The bicycle inner tube... to the day of sharing
News articles hard work day and night
Each letter is soaked in the sun and rain throughout the region.

So much has changed now
Happy silver hair next to green hair
Under the canopy of fresh wind
Seven floors of glass doors sparkling in the sunlight(3)

The pure young pens
Digital, every horizon is not far away...
The love is always sweet
Proud of the hometown newspaper of the East!
