Green Island Serenade

Taipei 1954 The song Green Island Serenade was heard over the Tannoy in the park The crowds listened in silence As time moves on the park where people used to come for music has become a meeting point for gay men at night No more songs are heard over the Tannoy but the melancholy melodies still echo in the lonely hearts of those young men lingering in the park Although youth is gone and the singer has aged the singing continues for over half of a century
