Ah! sunflower, weary of time,
Who countest the steps of the sun,
Seeking after that sweet golden clime
Where the traveler’s journey is done;
Where the youth pined away with desire,
And the pale virgin shrouded in snow,
Arise from their graves and aspire;
Where my sunflower wishes to go.
~Ah! Sunflower by William Blake

Luscious fantasy art image titled “Worry” by Chinese artist Wei Fan.
My people have married me
In a far corner of Earth:
Sent me away to a strange land,
To the king of the Wu-Sun.
A tent is my house,
Of felt are my walls;
Raw flesh my food
With Mare’s milk to drink.
Always thinking of my country.
Would I were a yellow stork
And could fly to my old home!
~The Lament Of Xi Chun – Poetry Of A Chinese Princess, 110 B.C.E, Translated by Arthur Waley
