Colours of Shanghai
Korean International Springboard, Tang, Adrienne - 12
Colours of Shanghai are all around,
Up in the sky and on the ground.
Orange are the robes at the temple of Jade,
Grey is the pollution the factories have made.
Yellow is the mountain and the sea to the North,
Blue is my taxi as I bravely go forth.
Red is the pavilion, the Museum of China Art,
Greenland Shenhua captures fans hearts.
Pink is Disney’s castle and steep spiral tower
White is the Magnolia, Shanghai’s favourite flower.
Golden are the Eagles, the top baseball team,
Purple is the night sky just before I dream.
