Built a thousand years ago--2008 China trip

Wet
Surrounded by water
Thronged by tourists
Both domestic
         and foreign
Venice of Asia
Water town
Shining pearl of China
So much to see
Such  a little time
Arts and crafts
Bonded aqua birds
Missing gondolier songs
 
Traveling
from old to new
riding rails toward
Shanghai river tour

Lloyd, it's a trip I'd love to make. Every since I was a kid I've wanted to go to Shanghai. Almost made it in the navy. To escape a typhoon we headed for the China coast[ rough waters and all, I was happy. But then the damn storm changed direction and came right at us, so we had to change course and head north, by passing the China coast and Shanghai. I'm still made about it. Thanks for the journey.
