Well, I decided to take my little four line poem about winter and expand it. Now it goes Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter, Spring again. I think it went well... I took a little liberties with grammar, since A: I'm not a native speaker and B: It's only four characters per line. It's a weird mix between colloquial Chinese and semi-Classical in usage. Almost fail, in other words.

Here's a translation:

"Gentle sunlight,
Cherry blossoms (are) fragrant.
Men and women go on strolls,
Petals fall on the lake.

The sun is very big,
Orchids are all in bloom.
Students get out of class,
Kids sing songs.

10,000 yellow leaves fall,
See the empty bird nest.
Friends are knocking on the door,
Pour a cup of [wine or tea].

Winter is about to arrive,
The weather isn't good.
The wind is bitterly cold,
My heart is troubled.

Spring has arrived again,
The plum blossoms are pure white.
Every year, everyday,
Starting afresh."

It all kinda came to me in a flash. I was quite inspired. Hope you like it!
