#lanternfestival - Hello Poetry

I have no voice, but my song fills your heart. I have no form, but my presence is an art. I bloom in silence, a delicate flower, Nourished by respect, in every shared hour. I burn with a passion, a gentle warm light, Reflecting your soul, both morning and night. I ask for no grand gestures, no jewels, nor gold, Just a whispered promise, a story untold. What am I, treasured and precious and true, A bond between two, me and you? ... Love

Lantern Festival Riddle (2025)

I have no voice, but my song fills your heart. I have no form, but my presence is an art. I bloom in silence, a delicate flower, Nourished by respect, in every shared hour. I burn with a passion, a gentle warm light, Reflecting your soul, both morning and night. I ask for no grand gestures, no jewels, nor gold, Just a whispered promise, a story untold. What am I, treasured and precious and true, A bond between two, me and you? ... Love

Autumn Moon rises Full-faced and bright Filling the sky White with hues of orange and red First of the lunar year Moonlight dancing Over the mountains Beaming through the valley Reflections on the river Mountains with the moon above Amber lights of lanterns The flicker of candles within Villagers crowd the banks Honor, remembrance, Peace, forgiveness Riddles light the village streets Celebrations are in the air Notes and prayers adorn the water Prayers for ancestors and luck abound Tiny lanterns start to glow The current is gentle Pulling the gifts from the shore Drifting downstream Guided and protected By the spirit below Roar of the water Mist obscures River falls away Crashing below Spirit revealed Over the edge Tiny vessels washed away Updraft catches Lanterns take flight Spirit encircles Spirit soars upwards Heaven's journey Serpentine flight Celestial Guardian Heaven's palace Spirit returns Duty fulfilled River domain Benevolent and pure Slumber awaits as the rain begins to fall

High Moon ascends, Full and resplendent, Sky ablaze, Orange, red, a haze, Year anew. Moonbeams dance, Over the mountains, Valley aglow, River reflects low, Moonlit scene. Lanterns alight, Candles flicker bright, Villagers throng, Honoring the long, Yearned-for peace. Riddles abound, Joyful sounds resound, Notes on the stream, Ancestors' dream, Lanterns gleam. Currents so mild, Gifts drift wild, Spirits guide, Down the tide, Protected all. Water roars loud, Mist shrouds the crowd, River descends, Spirit extends, Power revealed. Over the fall, Lanterns enthrall, Updraft takes hold, Celestial fold, Spirit ascends. Soaring high, Heavenward journey, Serpentine flight, Guardian of light, Palace awaits. Duty complete, Spirit retreats, River's domain, Pure and serene, Sleep descends, rain.
