A Chinese translation of the poem that follows alongside a photo of a park trail lined with abundant growth of trees and shrubs. It is early fall and some leaves have turned yellow and red.

the path that leads

to paradise

is never straight

flowers alone

butterflies and snails

know the turns it takes
