The Dining Table Like Silk Texture

Kinsley Lee

In the ground of general Kwon's house, now 
An ancient gingkgo-tree proudly stands, 
As the sun sets, in the western sky, 
The clouds turn red when looking up in this lands.

Gleaming-lights spread like the silk, here
And there, steadily lighting the night, 
And thoughts of our hometown, and the food which reminds 
Us mother's love, it induce us tight.
(1st., Nov.,2023, Kinsley Lee)  

Kwon: the family name of the general who defeated Japanese troops at Haeng-Ju(Northwest area of Seoul)   During Japanese Choseon War(Mar.,1593)  
Gingkgo Tree: maidenhair tree, Ginkgo biloba
