Memories of my past continue to haunt me,
In my dreams every night.

Our spirits swore their faith for all ages.

Open gates let into our lives;

Loyalty,
Goodwill,
To Rule Solemnly,
Exalted Ceremonies,

Showing the Correct thing,
Wisdom.
Bright Light and,
Justice for all.

We only need to find the courage to
Walk through just one,
To make our dreams
Come true.

"The Eight Gates are eight historical gates that were located in the Fortress Wall of Seoul, South Korea, which surrounded the city in the Joseon Dynasty. Six of these gates exist today (2014) . All eight gates were originally built between 1396 and 1398."

Shining star, so far away;
Her starlight travels across,
Distant time and space.

Her warmth travels so far to reach me.

So many years,
She was rising, but I could not see.

Her glimmering starlight reaches me at last.

Now that I can see her, she lights up my sky,

I pray she rises every day and night.
I pray she never vanishes from life.

Angels of heaven sing and dance in this place!

Here, beautiful and bright sister sun herself,
Seen between roses and cherry blossoms,
Has a brother moon.

Sister and brother shine day and night.

Rivers, streams, Flow through hills and mountains,
What a calming place.

Blue eyed angels run through fields Of beautiful aster and daisies.
Green grass sweet apple trees.

Magpies fly so high in a bright blue sky, Like guardian Angels.

Here is a dream, a fairy-tail, maybe a fantasy.
Can this be real?

I'm in a happy place.

I chose the Sun to be female and the moon to be male because of the Korean myth about how the Sun and Moon were created. At the end of the story. Sister moon was afraid of the dark. So the brave and kind brother Sun switched places with his sister.

See invisible things,
No one else sees.

Lives meet at the most-important times,
By no accident.
Our spirits met in the past and,
God gave us a second chance.

Boyfriend is waiting to catch her in his arms;
Hug her from behind,
Give her a rose every morning,
Give her a surprise,
Write her little notes,
Listen to her words,

Give her a kiss on the forehead,

Tell her she is 'beautiful.',
Inside and out,

Say, “I love you.”,
Not only with words but deeds...

On the morning of a warm June day,
Quite by accident.

Feelings of fascination and intrigue
came over me.

I looked and did see,
beautiful pink roses in front of me.

The more I looked, the more I learned
The more I wanted to know.

I looked and did see a white tiger,
Walking past me.

The more I looked, the more I learned
The more I wanted to know.
Because the more I knew, the more I liked this
place where tigers roam among roses.

I looked and did see my future,
In this fascinating place.

The national flower of Korea is the mugunghwa (무궁화) , rose of Sharon.

"Tiger has been strongly associated with Korean people and Korean culture

A tiger that has overcome trials and tribulations and understands the world is known to turn white, becoming a white tiger. Although it is a sacred creature that doesn't harm people, it becomes angry when the ruler of the country conducts evil and inhumane deeds. Therefore, it has been told that powerful people become humble and rich people become generous when a white tiger appears."

I felt I was in a magical
place when I heard her voice?

I was so absorbed in her song,
It made a connection between us.

All talking and laughter had ceased,
There was no one else but her and me.

I found myself looking at her;
The more I looked,
The more I listened.

No matter how hard I tried,
I could not turn away,

Because, I did not want to miss a thing.

Night night
Angel in a silk robe,
Rest on your bed where moonlight falls.

Night night
I will guard you this night,
Send all your worries to me.

Night night
Sleep and dream of wondrous things;
Dream of mountains, gardens,
Lying on a warm seaside beach.
Sleep and dream of dancing with the one you love,
In your bare feet under a moonlit palm tree,

Your dreams are everything to me.

Night night
Your rising will bring a new day,
When you will get dressed in the happiest of dreams...
