China Beware.

Once more she is off,

Travelling the world,

This young lady of adventure,

Fearless as she goes through her life.

A forthright lady who suffers fools

Not at all,

But whose trust is paramount

To all around her.

Into the unknown she now ventures

Firm in the knowledge

That all will be wonderful

In this new old country.

A country of both ancient

And modern times,

To where she will teach the young

And lead them into a broader life.

 

A young lady of whom I am proud,

No, extremely proud

As she ventures forth.

All I can give her

Is my profound respect,

And all my love,

As her Grandfather.
