the moon-cake festival

 


The moon-cake festival

The young will enjoy the event

The lanterns and moon cakes

Every participant can smile


The night of lanterns

The school band play the songs

Walking on the street

Every one will see the parade


The parents and on-lookers

They may wish they are young again

The children cry of fun and joy

They beat the working adults


But the moon cakes

The prices shoot too high

It has become too commercial

The meaning of it has lost its sting


The moon will shine

The sparkles of light in the sky

Nobody is going to complain

Once a year so be it on the price
