China, she is sleeping
by Tim Kavi
lovely my dear
she lies sleeping
I hear the music of China
in her beating heart
and when the sun rises
her love guides my
daily start
and when she walks
her graceful steps
alight
like all the goddesses
in stellar flight
but when she smiles
it is always
approving
in her gentle
loving
love is
proving
to be the essence
of all she is
Chinese woman
appearing.
