"Current Art" - A Poem

Author : Joey Zhou

The thousand-year-old agarwood tree exudes the fragrance of orchids,  

Smelling the fragrance, I recognize old friends who have returned and are laughing and talking happily; 

 Meeting by chance, it is prosperous, and there is also a song-like andante. 

 The melody gently sways beside the mortal spirit, 

 The rhythm is bright and powerful, beating the eardrums

Dancing, moving the body, and there are dream-like wayward steps. 

The life that has not been investigated is yesterday,

The painting that has not been danced is colorful; 

The friendship that has not been forgotten is in front of us, 

The blood of life that has not been betrayed is connected.
