Wishing and still hoping.
I have always been a fan of Kung Fu and Brue Lee I so wanted to Learn the art and looked around for lessons But although I travelled far and wide I found none not one for me Disheartened that instead of becoming a master As I had dreamed about it since childhood It was a complete disaster Then one day out of the blue I was looking at the back of a Kung Fu magazine Something caught my eye and my imagination too It was an ad which read '' Master kung Fu within an hour'' I just couldn't believe it could be true.? But I sent five hundred bucks to a post office box Somewhere In Timbuktu About a week later I received a packet With no return label or return address I begin to think is this some kind of racket? But I couldn't wait to get it open and see What was inside waiting There for me Inside was a Kung Fu Suit way too small With instructions written in Chinese on what to do Also included was a chart with Kung moves I couldn't work out at all Funny it came with a jar too? The instructions read '' Go out into the garden wearing your new suit of navy blue'' So I did go into the garden as it told me to do But the Kung Fu suit was so small and tight I couldn't move And I was getting frustrated too I unscrewed the lid on the jar Unexpectedly and suddenly I was attacked by a swarm of angry bees how bizarre? It was a scam and a sting alright As I first thought it would be I was covered in hundreds of bee stings ouch! that night I hope this will warn you to think carefully That you can't learn an ancient art within an hour And you may never be Bruce Lee.
