My City

By Yuxi Deng

I love my city Foshan,

A land of endless highways,

Of impressive skyscrapers.

Of lively people and modern architecture.

I love the pampered cute pets,

I love the nice weather. I can take a walk with my friends,

Her skyline is amazing, scattered with many iconic buildings,

This mighty sleeping dragon dances in my dreams!

My City

By Yuhong Gao

I love my small city QuanZhou,

A land of ragged green mountains.

Of  the scent of incense in the old temple,

Of  the crowded historical city.

I love the two towers and Kaiyuan Temple built in Song Dynasty,

I love the delicious food enjoyed by locals.

Her  tea field spread across rolling mountains ranges,

This cultural city  is famous for its cuisine and ancient buildings!

My Country

By Yuqing Han

I love my home in China,

A land of crowded vibrant neighbourhoods,

Of raucous sirens.

Of blazing lively summers.

I love the booming modern city,

I love skyscrapers built in the city centre,

Her spectacular attractions,

Invigorating her people and countless strangers

From diverse nations.

This congested country will be richer and stronger

Through the flowing of time!

My Country

By Dorothea Mackellar

I love a sunburnt country,

A land of sweeping plains,

Of ragged mountain ranges.

Of droughts and flooding rains.

I love her far horizons,

I love her jewel-sea,

Her beauty and her terror -

This wide brown land for me!

My Village

 by Ketty Karalis

I love my little village,

A land of rolling green hills,

Of distant sound of sheep bells,

Of fragrant wild flowers and lush green mountain herbs.

I love the thousand year old olive groves!

I love my father’s tiny dilapidated home,

Her cliffs and ragged ranges and isolated tracks.

This lonely little village forgotten by time.

I love my city Hong Kong

A land of shimmering grey skyscrapers

Of neon-lit sky lines and mist-shrouded mountains

Of Chinese traditions and modern western influence intertwine

I love her crowded city centre

I love her  bustling streets 

Her legendary Bouhinia flower

This small but impressive city!

  I love my bustling hometown 

 A land which is peaceful and serene

 Of the song birds in the early dawn,

 Of the clean fresh air early morning.

 Her scent, her voice and her natural fragrance

This is the place where I grew up!
