Gong Xi Fa Cai
The feeling of peace
once so far away
but now just so close
at the corner of my heart
During the seven days
making dinner for my family
giving lucky money
pasting spring festival couplets
buying lovely plants
visiting Yingge Ceramics Old street
for budget porcelain and pottery
even simply enjoying sunbathing
I truly love having this
Chinese New Year peace

Your poem beautifully captures the essence of finding peace and contentment in the midst of life's everyday moments, especially during the auspicious occasion of Chinese New Year. The imagery you paint of simple joys like making dinner for family, giving lucky money, and enjoying the warmth of the sun conveys a sense of serenity and fulfillment. The reference to visiting Yingge Ceramics Old Street adds a cultural richness to the poem, highlighting the significance of traditions and heritage in fostering a sense of tranquility. Your expression of love for the peace found during Chinese New Year resonates with authenticity and sincerity, evoking a sense of warmth and gratitude. Gong Xi Fa Cai indeed, may this peace continue to bless your heart throughout the year.

Dear J,
Happy belated New Year. I enjoyed the beauty and excitement of this celebrated holiday and all the opportunities a new year provides. Kind of like resetting one’s outlook on life. Getting a peek into what life is like through another’s perspective is such a gift. This piece was a joy to read. H🌷
