2021-11-30 - Sailing Homeward by Chan Fang-shēng
================================================

Cliffs that rise a thousand feet
  Without a break,
Lake that stretches a hundred miles
  Without a wave,
Sands that are white through all the year,
  Without a stain,
Pine-tree woods, winter and summer
  Ever-green,
Streams that for ever flow and flow
  Without a pause,
Trees that for twenty thousand years
  Your vows have kept,
You have suddenly healed the pain of a traveller's heart,
And moved their brush to write a new song.
