The peak of life
People walking on the street
The narrow alleys
Pitted with tiny shops
Chinese calligraphy
A whiff of sweet & sour
The chinese lanterns.

Old man in the park
moving slowly
Shadow boxing in the Tai Chi form
Fans move gracefully
in Kung Fu combat
Ah
The essence of life.
Looking back I can remember being absolutely fascinated with Chinese culture.
I almost had an opportunity to go to Hong Kong to study Choy Lay Fut Kung Fu. I don’t think my parents would ever have allowed it if it came to fruition.
