Yuling Chen

To strangers, Hong Kong and friends. 

The slogan is all right, 

Liberation of Hong Kong, revolution of our 

Time, he turns his face hiding the flawed expressions,

A teacup is cleaned,

The lady is drinking hot lemon water from the cup,

Warm weather encroaches on him,

His hand on the driving wheel, looking straight to the banners, 

Unfurled in the winds,

Air is heavy with 

memories, 

Emotions are gentle creases on my dress, 

It belows,

It expands.
