Inscription: 湖月照古木
 

In the month of March 2004, I had a chance to meet an architect employed by New Energy Works, Timber frame house builder.
At one point he and another representative asked me if I could make a passage for the wooden beam inscription of the loft facing the great room.
The house under the plan would be a lake home with many old oak trees in the property, which gave me an idea about the moon over the lake. That’s how I came up with lakemoon, old oak trees and lake view.
In English, : This passage indicates that Lake Moon beams its light to the old trees, or Lake Moon throws its light to the old trees.

Some images of trees, lake views and lakemoon are seen below.

  Next are two related images and poems

松風吹解帶 山月照彈琴:
Winds through pine groves blow and then loosen my belt,
mountain moon beams my lute.


静夜思
Quiet Night Thoughts
 

Now is the time to enjoy a famous Chinese Poem

 
静夜思 李白

床前明月光,
疑是地上霜。

舉頭望明月,
低頭思故鄉。


Quiet Night Thoughts, Li Po

Bright moonlight before my bed;
I suppose it is frost on the ground.

I raise my head to view the bright moon,
Then lower it, thinking of my home village.
 

Next I tried to search my inscription 湖月照古木 from Google Search:
I wanted to find any images or anything else related to my inscription and its meaning.

 
Insert 湖月照古木 images in the Google Search
I found four images of my own making
