The Gift From China
THE GIFT from CHINA
In the flickering candle light,
a thousand year old legend
comes to life, caught in my sight
Beauties You brought for my delight.
I watch them radiate as they vibrate, dance
before me, bringing thoughts of You, every night
into my consciousness, my mindfulness of what was.
I see in You, as They, a beauty that would turn the moon,
that would silence song birds, would send them into hiding,
would take a warring man and make him a lover of peace,
the peace that comes out of the love for a beautiful Woman.
A Woman, who's inner beauty surpasses anything the eyes see.
These are what I have observed in you Xiao Ling!
Memories of all we once shared, within me still sing
a song of happiness, happiness to me you did bring.
