The longing, windy lane
Brings all sign of wane

But of Shadows, sought
Hanging air, death thought

Souless wind their way
Hope of swallow nay

The New Year without
The Dog barks its doubt

"Ni Gong Xi Fa Cai"
But Ni, such is why?

Death pets the sleeping
The Erhu howls, weeping

The road closes dark
The gems, dim in spark

The lane shows not lots
Future yet cast, lost
