Your tender love is a red
lotus flower
Growing in summer
And in winter in the two deep wells
My love for you is a blue
dragonfly
Long for kissing your smiles
But before moving my wings
My heart has fallen deep into the whirlpool
I was drunk and drowned
Into a vivid Chinese painting
By the reverent artist Old Baishi
*Qi Baishi: a well
known master of Chinese Painting.
