Chinese Valentine's Day

Lunar New Year brings blessings bright: Affluence now cheers our spirits right. Goodies galore with sure good health: So much and more with ample wealth. Time moves most brisk with bounty's range: We live fine risk as fortunes change. So much to do as plenty sums: For me and you with grand outcomes. The moon aglow this 15th day: Valentine shows true lover's way. Chap Goh Mei rhymes that Luna gaze: Seek to court times in hearty maze. Chinese New Year brings happy spring: Here's to good cheer and precious things. May all our dreams bring happy thoughts: May love's fond streams bring healthy lots. Live faith and hope as love seeds grace: Work your grand scope with cheer you trace. Leon Enriquez 11 February 2017 Singapore (Note: 'Chap Goh Mei' means "15th Day" of the lunar month in Hokkien, a Chinese dialect with origins in Fujian province in China.)
