CNY 2nd day

CNY 2nd day.
Today, the celebration continues.
People visit their distance relatives,
Their grand parents, aunties, uncles and cousins,
The CNY visiting's routine become formal and practical,
The meals is also less glamorous
There will be lobster, oysters and prawns.
The rotating hexagon box,
Full of sweets and candies are still on.
Chinese people believe,
What happens in the first three days in CNY,
Will repeat

Chinese New Year 2022 *

Oh no! again they've cancelled the Lion Dance
And the Dragons are also put on hold
How I longed to see them gyrate and prance
But the covid virus is still uncontrolled.

The sound of the drums, the cymbals and gongs
So intense and loud we jump with glee
Brilliant red lanterns and cheering throngs -
Their absence

Every beginning of the Chinese lunar calendar 
We ashering in Chinese New Year
Which carries a special meaning nowadays
Frankly to say
Just for us 
To relax
After a long session of strenuous work
For a complete rehabilitation,
To drop in
After a long absence of contacts
For a hearty reunion once a year
To plan
After a long painful struggle
For prosperity and happiness
To pray
After

Urge health to trace grand fond good cheer;
Now springs surprise with wealth that binds,
Apt blossoms bloom in touch of spring;
Reap what you sow with soul put right.
Endow heart's room with affluent things,
Ample thoughts grow sheer fortune bright;

Beauty now flings
Blessings of spring.


Beauty makes room
For spring time blooms.


Beauty now sings
As joy greets spring.


Beauty and peace
Happy times please.


Beauty knows best
How to live fest


Beauty knows soul
As joy sculpts whole.


Beauty lives well
Just where love dwells.


Beauty in time
Words sacred rhymes.


Beauty and wit
Allow fond fit.


Beauty styles smiles
In touch worthwhile.

But, then so was I. Yep folks, that makes me so very, amazingly wise.
Because I was born in the year of the Dragon, a Dragon egg I did get!
Now, for the Chinese New Year, we were invited to participate, you bet!

Son In Law's Day - Chinese New Year

The second day of the Chinese New Year
Tradition has it say
That the son in law visits 
His mother in law
Guest of honour on this day

She treats him like a king
When time to go back home
Gives him two lotus lanterns
One red and one white alone

Time of the lantern festival
At home when with his wife
He hangs them

Are you ready for a brand new year
The spring festival coming
So let’s all cheer
The lunar calendar starts again
It’s time to clean the cobwebs my friend




Gifts of red envelope’s everywhere
This is the Chinese New Year
The year of the sheep
The ram, the goat
Bring your fire crackers to make the most




Don’t forget those tangerines
They symbolize good luck and
