Newyork-There are many Chinese verses about the Mid-Autumn Festival. “Over the sea, the moon shines bright. Far apart, we have the same moonlit night.”; “Only waiting for the moon to rise to appreciate it together with you from miles away, we wish each other a long life to share the beauty of this graceful moonlight.”; “Dew turned into frost since tonight; the moon viewed at home is brighter.” The Mid-Autumn Festival bears beautiful and special meanings to all Chinese people around the globe and all those who love Chinese culture.
