Oldest Living Treasure
She's the oldest living treasure that the world has ever seen;
A creator of arts, with her canvas, the human skin.
Her beauty outshines many younger generations.
Her charm could be the greatest among all her possessions.
She's a glimmer of the island of the far east, from the north.
She's a pleasant scene being craved, of tempting sort.
May it be someone from the west or the east,
everyone gladly comes to gather for her feast.
*For Apo Whang-Od, the oldest living tattoo artist in the world at 106, a living treasure, in celebration of my 500th poem in Soup.*
