IT IS ALSO A CHALLENGE WINNER…FUN WITH WATER IN WORKS ON PAPER

Foamy tides, like snow-drifts, lingering;
A battalion of plum trees silently blooming;
A bottle of wine
And a fishing line;
Who in this world is my equal?

The oar rips apart the spring water
On which the leaf-like boat is floating.
A tiny hook dangles
At the end of a silk cord.

The islet is covered with blossoms
And my jug is full of wine.
Upon these thousand acres of waves there is freedom…Li Yu Ci
