Glimmer on the Cliff 懸崖晨曦

【Photo Inspiration】《Glimmer on the Cliff》
Adapted the melody of the verse《Southern Spring》
Text / Photography by Peter Bok

At six in the morning sky 
The moon is still hanging high 
To the steep cliff is surging tide 
Willows on the dike have flourishing twigs 
On the lake the morning sun rises 
Let bright red and gold threads 
Make this an embroidery skyline 

Morning rays glitter like gold 
Lake is bright and red as rose 
Affection and love-sickness grow 
Whereas sunrise viewers and cameras stand in row 
My worry is the brevity of the morning-glow 
And sad to see cliff flowers withered 
As the death toll goes*

* Many killed in fall from Scarborough Bluffs

三更早
月當空
崖畔潮浪湧
堤上柳枝濃
天際湖面光輪起
殷紅金線繡彩圖

晨曦爍
水嫣紅
多情相思種
觀日影沙龍
堪虞光輝無恆久
崖畔花黃添寃魂*

*  士嘉堡懸崖多次發生墮崖致死事件

#11. I met these 2 girls on the beach and suggested them to go to the cliff for a panoramic view of the Park.  Arriving the cliff with beautiful scene, they delighted, yelled and waved to me.
在沙灘遇到兩位女孩，我介紹她們上崖頂可覽人工島的全景，她們終於上崖觀景，美景當前，雀躍得向我揮手。
