Qipao is cheongsam


Poem Artwork

Cheongsam


Silk comes in with the Chinese,
good manners with the English,
be polite with the British!

Tartan comes in with the checkered Celts;
meet a Highland lassie in her kilt
and you may start weaving,
your threads never ceasing.

Cement comes in with the Romans
- all roads led to Rome -
but meet a Chinese beauty
in her qipao (cheongsam)
and you won't want to go home.
