                【A Marathon to Paris】

 

 


            
                       By Tian Yu Zhi 

 

 

 

An once in a life time run; an Olympic road to Paris 

Fresh morning air along the river Seine

A French kiss under the Arc de Triomphe 

1711 steps to the top of the Eiffle Tower

A prayer each night, until three years elapses

Until one night, the tower lights up the city

In sunset, at the moment of our union

 

 

Tears, sweat, thorns, solitude, won't  stop me

Wildfire, flash flood, virus, sneers, won't deter me

I have miles to run for a golden finish 

I zone out in my own sunny music 

Singing songs flowing from my heart 

I run towards the Sun, it guides me

To be each other's golden prize at the finish

 

 

Say goodbye to a world without Olympic Games

Say goodbye to a sky without Eiffel Tower

Show the world an old fashioned romance

With deep yearning, insurmontable trust, and grits

Nothing is impossible, one step at a time

Open the cage now, let go the doves to the blue sky

Give peace to the souls, set hearts free

 

 

A marathon to Paris, at last

We drink wine in each other's embrace

Count the dates backwards please ———

1095, 1094, 1093, 1092, 1091...

Every time I visited Disney Epcot, I would watch this short movie about France in the theater there. It is very beautifully made. I would have some French desserts in the nearby cafe afterwards, yummy ~ ~
