A GI looking for nookie
Met a Geisha girl called Suki
Would you believe
She could conceive 
Faster than a New York bookie?...

To Japan
In the place of the rising sun
Where fasts break on sushi
And the sumo's size a delight

The earth wriggles – wets our kimonos
Took stuffs up to origami
And dampens muses for haiku

As the sunrise 
We are in Nippon 
Together!...

Spring Revives Nippon
If streets had beats,
Ours would be steady,
Diversity beautifies Mt. Airy,

The grace of spring arrives,
I hear the children at play,
Today is pleasant,
Today is positive,
I feel so alive....

and say This isn't Nippon, you! 
So off he roams

because he wasn't a fish....
