Our Wishes Poem by Shaojun Li

Our Wishes



Talking about our wishes under the tree
You say, you will write a biography of mountains and waters.

But I love only to take pictures of clouds
and paint a landscape from my window
(with several birds chirping)
or sketch a portrait of my little girl.

She must stand under the papaya tree in our garden.


(transl. by Joan Xie & Sam Perkins from Chinese)
