AN ODE TO THE GOOSE

in #steemit8 years ago

“An Ode to the Goose” is a short poem from the Tang Dynasty, and is often the first poem that Chinese children are taught due to its simplicity.

It was written during the Tang Dynasty by child prodigy poet 骆宾王 (Luò bīn wáng), who penned this poem when he was only seven years old. 骆宾王 would go on to become one of the most famous poets of the Tang Dynasty, and later served as a secretary of the country government of Chang’an.

Goose, goose, goose,
You bend your neck towards the sky and sing.
Your white feathers float on the emerald water,
Your red feet push the clear waves.

Hello, I found this poem to be very ironic since it was created by a child prodigy just beginning his career as a great poet. He was just starting out and I realize that I am also just starting out getting familiar with the bitbean currency as well as the other crypto-currencies.
