Farewell to a sister-in-law

Many years parted, overjoyed to meet again 
Holding hands, talking happily like the midst of a dream
Like water, years' light passes in the blink of an eye
In this life, hope remains to grasp a spring breeze

Arrived quick quick, leaving quickly
Highly attentive, one voice is regarded as precious
Teary-eyed looking at each other, departing with regret 
We both carry feelings at coming to bid farewell

Farewell to fourth paternal aunt who came to visit from Hong Kong and toured the States for a month, touring with her daughter. This was the happiest time for her, a wish of a lifetime come true. 

spring breeze = warm, happy, everything going your way

- This was my grandfather's older sister with whom my dad and his older brother stayed when they left mainland China fleeing the Communists and prior to joining up with the rest of their family in Taiwan. 
- According to my mom, this was the time my dad tasted life as a guest, and depending on someone who's not your own family. "Once you don't live with your own family, you grow up real fast, and don't take things for granted, and become smart at detecting other people's feelings and expressions." Apparently my great-aunt's husband was an opium addict so the family was poor and two more mouths exacerbated their already scarce food portions.
