A brief tribute to famous Chinese poet ‘Du Fu’ An Artiste of Dark Age China who cared.
Willows bend in brutal storms,
Gales lashing: small, frail, homes,
People crushed by dynastic norms,
Lay ignored - dead: small, frail bones,

A new hope, a noble - by birth,
Lives low, among his fellow man,
In years of hope, they grow, cerebral worth,
Inspired by Du Fu, expanded minds can,

The Dragons fly, mean, among the clouds,
The Poet gives comfort and culture, belief,
Happiness & smiles, spread, among the crowds,
Many years of prosperity, resilience & relief,
