Christmas is Only a Few Hours Away

City is bustling with crowds, shops are still opening; but people slow down - their paces, buy last minute gifts, sip afternoon coffee or teas, to-boost the spirits of holiday, peacefully. I know -Christmas is -only a few hours away…

Walk into crowds,

on the high street-

shining with holiday lighting.

wander around in -

the Christmas market, full of-

craft shops, food booths,

we know -

Christmas is coming,

just a few hours away..


Blend yourself in -

the metropolitan regions;

listen to diverse voices,

Christmas music,

hang around in-

the big street;

stroll through-

the deep alley;

can you dig into-

cultural heritage,

sense the uniqueness of-

this urban city?

Could you feel -

the pulse of -

hyperdiversity,

melt into -

dynamic modern society to-

lift the holiday spirit?

Pass through -

city parks;

step into-

palace gardens;

breathe fresh air,

smell the flowers;

the wind is-

blowing;

leaves are falling,

people walk, jog, chat, laugh,

rejuvenate fresh energy;

when I run into-

the Christmas wonderland,

with rolling coasters,

game arcades,

I know -

the holiday is -

here already.



Listen to -

the Christmas carol,

watch holiday ornaments;

I saw -

reindeers running,

Santa workshops,

exquisite chocolate,

people start shopping -

last minute gifts,

in the market

I know -

Christmas Eve is coming!

The day becomes-

shorter & shorter;

the light turns to-

be brighter & brighter;

the journey of -

the life has-

up and down,

joy and sadness;

even if we took -

thorny paths;

detour routes,

shall we move forward,

make a laugh,

to overcome -

challenges, optimistically?

Are we able to-

keep reflecting, recharging, reinventing ourselves,

to lift the holiday spirit?

City is bustling with crowd,

shops are still opening;

but people slow down -

their paces,

sip afternoon coffee or teas, to-

boost the spirits of holiday,

peacefully,

I know -

Christmas is -

only a few hours away…
