My daughter is all wires and bones
she's got no time for rest
she must do well in her test
So whenever she is found tranfixed
before the TV like a stick
she'd be driven back to her room
to do her diary, homework & Kumon
to play the piano & the violin pieces
till 11:30 p.m midnight or early morning
till all is done, which usually isn't
she 'd turn on her bedside florescent light
and read her favourite books or cartoons
till when
we don't really know
and when she is done with her reading
she'd turn on her 'Sound of Music'
she's listened to it millions of times
not only the songs but also the lines
She sings in the church she is a choir member
Every monday from 7 to 9
She is a talented painter
Saturday night, she is a Kendo fighter
Piano player Friday Morning at home
violinist Monday at school Saturday in Tsuen Wan and Sunday after Church Choir
My wife wants her to be a swimmer too
If she's got time, I'd like her to be a ballet dancer
But her face is white and sometimes pale
'Go to sleep make good use of your time!'
'How can you be so careless with your Maths and Spelling?'
That's what her mommy ususlly tells her
She loves her dearly
But most of the time
She can't control yelling
But the girl doesn't care much
And after a while
She goes back to her saying Mommy mommy, you know what happened in school?
And she 'Blah, blah, blah over the meat, the rice but not the vegetables.
Of all the activites
She loves loafing most
Long Holidays in Yuen Long, climbing trees
Riding on the bike with her dad
running in the park with her brother
They are pleasures so simple
a glass of cold lemon tea for her
and for my wife
a cold cappucinno
life
isn't that very difficult
