Poem: A big ship is coming to port
As dawn’s first light caresses the sea, A mighty ship sails into Kaohsiung’s embrace, Like a majestic beast, it breaks the morning’s tranquility, Its grandeur reflected in the sun’s gentle rays.
The hull gleams in the golden light, Silver scales shimmering on the waves, The salty breeze whispers tales of the ocean, As the harbor awakens from its slumber.
Dockworkers spring to life, bustling with purpose, The roar of machinery fills the air, The great ship glides smoothly to its berth, A warrior returning from distant shores.
Kaohsiung’s splendor unfolds in this moment, The ship’s arrival a testament to the sea’s vast poetry, Adding a stroke of grandeur to the harbor’s canvas, A scene of epic beauty, timeless and free.
