T'was in Hong Kong
When I was young
I'd spend my time
Soaking in the sun

When I was young
Life held not a care
I'd dare to swim in the sea
Carefree

No one could share their fear
Of shark infested sea
They did not bother me

I'd swim with the tide
Joy inside
The youthful me
Being carefree!
Maria

a delight to read, and love that shoreline, Zy x

David

Hi Mikhail, Zy and David. Sorry for being absent. Have had a busy time with family and friends. Wasn't able to write anything of importance. Thanks for your response to my little ditty and lovely picture of the sea. I really loved my time in the warm waters of Hong Kong. Here it is frigid, you can't even walk in it. One would get hyperthermia if one swam here. The currents are treacherous. You have to be a pro before you sailed in it. But we have a gorgeous view and the beaches are pristine. No wonder!

I do miss the fun I had when I was young, it was oh so long ago. I miss the camaraderie and carefree lifestyle I had whilst there. But it is no longer.
Regards and fond wishes,
Mariaxx
