Wrote a poem to celebrate the upcoming Mid-Autumn Festival...

First, the Chinese version:

月娥俪影洒南湾，新友笑颜溢学堂

望尽天涯求索路，醉邀明月伴君行

Then, the English version:

Angel Moon Graces South Bay, Friend's Smile Fills Study Room

On the Horizon Lies My Way, Come With Me Fly To the Moon

| Thanks Julio Iglesias for the beautiful song La Mer, last heard in the amazing British film <Tinker Soldier Tailor Spy>

On the beautiful night of Sep 28, six-city-spin tried out her calligraphy:

This poem is not one of my best, and this calligraphy is not six-city-spin's best effort either, but together they were a nice tribute on this special occasion.

then, after a joyful Facetime session with both my parents and in-laws in Shanghai, my parents responded with this much, much better poem:

喜逢海上明月夜，两家父母共思亲

遥望彼岸奇快闪，双双求索再创新
