The poem was wrote by Li Bai and is one of the most well-known poem in China,most of Chinese people are able to recite it by heart.

Night Thoughts
by Li Bai
 
I wake, and moonbeams play around my bed,
 
Glittering like hoar-frost to my wandering eyes;
 
Up towards the glorious moon I raise my head,
 
Then lay me down---and thoughts of home arise.

If you want to learn Chinese poem,you can't avoid the poet.I think I should introduce him.The following introduction comes from: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Li_Bai

Li Bai or Li Po (李白)(701-762) was a Chinese poet who lived during the Tang Dynasty.

His name was traditionally pronounced Li Bo or Li Po (depending on the romanisation), hence the familiar name Li Po by which he has long been known in the West. However, the use of the pronunciation 'bó' (pinyin romanisation), originally associated with the reading of Classical Chinese, has largely disappeared in modern China, partly as a result of language planning and standardisation.

Called the Poet Immortal, Li Bai is often regarded, along with Du Fu, as one of the two greatest poets in China's literary history. Approximately 1,100 of his poems remain today. The Western world was introduced to Li Bai's works through the very liberal translations of Japanese versions of his poems made by Ezra Pound.

Li Bai is best known for the extravagant imagination and striking Taoist imagery in his poetry, as well as for his great love for liquor. Like Du Fu, he spent much of his life travelling, although in his case it was because his wealth allowed him to, rather than because his poverty forced him. He is said to have drowned in the Yangtze River, having fallen from his boat while drunkenly trying to embrace the reflection of the moon.
