The Dragonflies Of China

Once there was a beautiful lady dragonfly.
Her name was Kai Lang
Or bright one.
She lived on the edge of the pond.
She was in love with Shi Yi,
And sent him a note in the breeze:
Shi Yi, you poetic one,
I have love in my heart for you.
But it only wafted away,
And she was left alone.
Next there was Shuang Lang,
Her littlest loved one,
But he was much too little,
And so they left each other alone.
Last of all there was Wu Lai,
A big brat!  but she loved him the most.
Ah, what to do.
She would have only one loved one,
But none of them was right it seemed.
Perhaps it was Shi Yi and she had only
To try again to write him a letter of love,
But oh, she was much too old now,
And had lost her charm.
