Utahloy International School Guangzhou held a school-wide Chinese poetry recitation competition on the afternoon of June 7. The students provided an accompaniment of poetry and song, and their youthful exuberance lit up the poetic firmament and brought us a dazzling poetry festival.
The beauty of the classics of Chinese poetry has been passed down for thousands of years. The primary students gave their interpretation of popular classic poems with their young but powerful voices. Their pianoaccompaniment praised the elegance of “Chang’e”; they paid sincere and moving tribute to the bravery of “Mulan” and their dance was a graceful interpretation of the magnificence of the “Lushan Waterfall”. They showed a great appreciation of the poetic form both classical and modern and demonstrated an elegance and vitality in the rhythm of their poetry recitation.
The song of youth builds dreams for the future. The secondary students interpreted the lofty ambitions of “Man Jiang Hong” and “Po Zhen Zi” through the alternating heights and depths of their voices, and conveyed the firm beliefs of “Believe in the Future” and “Love Life” through changes in cadence and rhythm. The performances of the students were by turns passionate and unrestrained; gentle and melodious or deep and restrained. Each style was unique and charming, and they all used their own individual voices and emotions to interpret their feelings about poetry, which was refreshing.
After fierce competition among the contestants and strict evaluation by the judges, the final winners of the competition were:
First Prize-1: Happy
Second Prize-2: Via, An Na
Third Prize-4: James, Soso, Allen, Nico & Kevin
Best Creativity Award: Nico & Kevin

The poetry which we heard was melodious and memorable. Long after the competition has ended, the charmof the performances will linger in the hearts of the students reminding them of the charm of the poetic form, the sound of the poetic voice and imparting an understanding of the true meaning of our lives.
