@wlh8964: Postcard to Miss LIU Yanli (劉艷麗)

Exhausted snowflakes are fallen on the ground
With tears in my eyes, I still hope something
That matches thy beautiful melody can be found
The self-proud winter-witch deludes itself
That all the music strings would be frozen into ice
But refuses to see March will come, as always
To bring the spring back to the mankind
And flowers to the earth
Then I'd watch thee dancing elegantly
Much prettier than the flower fairy

Footnote:
Miss LIU Yanli (劉艷麗) is a human rights activist and political prisoner, charged for the so-called “public disturbance” by the Chinese regime. She is still not seen in public though she should have been released on March 23, 2023.

Many thanks, Bernadete, for ever your kind comments.

Miss Liu is one of China's conscience, and she
is beautiful with a beautiful heart.

Kind regards,
