Poetry – Group 2
Greater Bay Area —
My New Hometown
Regents Primary School of Shenzhen, Wu, Chun Yu Molinali – 10
Looking down from Chang‘s space raft,
the earth is as a beautiful crystal.
Whenever she flies over the stars in the South China Sea,
will see several cities scattered on the blue ball,
like a piece of decent jade.
Although the lights are not so bright,
but they never fade.
The tunnels of time and space go round and round.
Finally, one day a great man was full of poetry came,
to the nine cities of the broken jade.
He came up with a brand new name,
“Guangdong - Hong Kong - Macao Greater Bay Area.”
Since then, the Sleeping land came back to life.
Like a sleeping lion woke up.
He was proud of the heroes.
He looked at the end of the world.
On that day,
the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao bridge will be opened,
the World will exclaim,
“That is the great artery of the lion!”
When Shenzhen and Hong Kong shake hands at that moment,
the lion will have his own heart,
the surging pulsation.
The pulse of the nine cities will be strangely united.
“Fusion”, “Integrated”, “One country two systems”, and “One Belt And One Road”,
a brand new symbol of life,
it will be branded on the lion.
And we are like every cell of the lion,
it’s an inexhaustible source of energy.
We grow up under the dazzling stars,
as if the accumulation of endless strength,
carries the body of the male lion,
races to the front of the world.
More than 150 years ago,
Hong Kong was just tourist overseas.
