A Definition of Wan-Hua Street | Zihong Chen

The name of Wan-hua Street is the signifier or signified, I hesitate,
what attracts me is not interpretation, but the changing poetic sentiment.

Which exact meaning can be located for the Hua, a Chinese character?
paces of one or two people, or a belle and furbelows of her?

If we use adjectives like extravagant, prodigal, moneyed, splendid,
the street history will gladly accept them, pretend to refuse in a second.

The previous recycling facilities were already written in implicit lists,
Fragrant Flowers Courtyard, as always, responds to salvos of flowers.

Time crosses the sidewalk, changes the scenes once a decade, once a year,
Colorful glorious flowers, flourishing, coloring, blossoming and waning.

Feelings for Wan-hua Street is the most regular yearning this moment,
The Street is coloring a kaleidoscope, spring-colored, enticingly fragrant?
