Hello everyone,

Hope you're all well.

I was wondering if someone could help me translate what is written on my friend Meaghan's t-shirt:

Meaghan's T-shirt

 

Thanks in advance...

hi, this is a very cool T-shirt!

the biggist character is 秋= autumn.

and the character beside the tail is 夢=dream(by the way, it's a traditional charactoer which should be 梦 in simplified characters)

I know all the characters here, but they don't make  sense for me.it's more like an disordered poem about seasons, I think.

I know someone who has made a T-shirt with a  deliberately jumbled message in 汉字, in the pursuit of art.  Chinese speakers look at it and say 'What the ****?'   :-)  

Maybe that is what we have here!!  

Or maybe it is just pure aesthetics.. Meaghan seems to like it anyway..
