selected poetry
Learning to Love Hong Kong
because it has the most extraordinary skyline.
because the Victoria Harbour calms the night view
because star ferries gently sail
and because of islands situated in between.
because you see mountains rather than the tallest buildings.
because I am walking on HK Island
I take old fashioned trams
as well as that tram ding ding to the stunning Peak
becaue I have seen banners on top of the Lion Rock
because there exists the spirit of fellow Hongkongers
because I have heard people shouting in yellow umbrellas in Admiralty
because in unity we have sung.
But I see the brightest lights in a bigger city.
I hear the loudest broadway and jazz music
it calls me.
Because I once matched the rhythm of the crowd
but my footsteps go faster than the people
because of my desire to see beyond the population
because I have loved this lovely city
but also because our spirit is to never give up
I have to move on.
Because I have loved here
I shall return.
