I Saw her name painted upon a stone Then you told me the legend of Bao Si Her form as an ageless, ancient beauty Still alive, breathing in places of love I have wandered bound within her legend Spiriting me across stormy jade seas Walked upon ancient timeless stone pathways I've taken her to heart as I have you Enfolded within emerald dreaming I've envisioned standing on the Great Wall Then setting ablaze the warning tower Forsaking all just to have seen her smile You've told me about the Yunnan mountains About the precious teas harvested there The peaceful palmed paradise below them Gentle winds whisper the name of Bao Si Beneath the soft shadows of those mountains           In the early morning amber sunrise Hands held we will share warm tea and kisses Love in a coy blossomed beautiful place © P.M.H 2009 Revised 2/12/19
