Summer Night
Author/He Qifang
Newly bathed in the gentle breeze of June acacia flowers,
Your hair drips with cool, subtle fragrance.
The round green shade is our sky,
A starry smile in your beautiful eyes.
Chrysanthemums sleep quietly in the dreams of verdant leaves,
Their faint fragrant breath like the golden wings of fireflies.
Flying by the lake, flying in the hazy grass,
Fluttering to your knees, lightly covered by your skirt.
Your soft arms like abundant grapevines
Around my neck, whispering sweet, ripe secrets.
You say you heard the trembling in my chest.
Like tree roots shaking the earth on a hot summer night?
Yes, a new strange tree grows in my heart,
And soon will bloom red flowers on my lips.

May you feel comfortable and peaceful, and live your days vividly through the changing solar terms.
