Music commentary
Modern young people are likely to have no practical experience with such items as wooden clogs. Most of the knowledge about it comes from films or pictures, but in Taiwan before the 1950s, it was almost a suit worn by everyone.

Professor Yu Guangzhong's new poem in the 1980s: "Clogs and Feelings" is the second part of "Kick and Tap", which can vividly depict the activities of children at that time wearing clogs. The poems are full of innocent feelings, light and rhythmic rhythm, and streamlined and smooth use of words. They are very suitable for compose music with free tonal writing. This song is composed of its poems.

The music has a simple rhythm of descending sound as the basic material for accompaniment. It is also the main background of the whole song from beginning to end. This sound also describes the scene of walking back and forth wearing clogs in a simple rhythm. The music takes the form of A, A’,B , A”.
