Year of the Goat
banners rise in street
each painted silk masterpiece
a celebration
of rich colors bleeding life
ancient spirits soar tonight
gentle goat once gray
brushed bold in crimson through time
draws fresh eyes and breath
a thousand years preserved
to graze upon ancient hill
for Debbie's Chinese New Year Contest, 1/24/15
inspired by Chinese silk painting
