Shui diao ge tou

An excerpt from a poem by Song Dynasty poet, Su Shi quoted by Eugene Sim at the class reunion in Penang last weekend!

"People have their griefs and joys, their togetherness and separation,
The moon has its dark and clear times, its waxings and wanings.S

ituations are never ideal since long ago.
I only hope we two may have long long lives,
So that we may share the moon's beauty even though we are a three hundred miles apart."
