Promised Land And Foreign Moon Tanka Poem by Chen-ou Liu

Promised Land And Foreign Moon Tanka



Father once said,
'the foreign moon seems rounder
than the one at home...'
alone in this promised land
I bite into a mooncake


Note: Mooncake is the most popular and important food eaten during the Chinese Moon Festival, a harvest festival also known as the Mid-Autumn Festival,
