CUI, Hao
    
      
    
      
    
      
    Yellow Crane Tower 
    
      
    
      
    The ancient one  
  
flew off on his yellow crane,
Now this place is empty
only Yellow Crane Tower remains.
The Yellow Crane
once gone never returns,
White clouds for a thousand years
empty and remote.
Boats and Hanyang trees
reflect in clear water,
Lush vegetation thrives
on Parrot Shoal.
At dusk I ask for news of home,
These mist shrouded waters
           heavy on my heart.
