"The Dragon King's Daughter"
Tonight, I read a Tang Dynasty Story
to the vibration of a hurricane's thunder:
The Dragon King's Daughter
written at the beginning
of the ninth century.
It's an age-old tale
of romance
between a young man
and the dragon king's daughter
by Li Chaowei.
It ripples through centuries
from Dongting Lake
soothing a long day;
Allowing an ancient plot twist
and modern woman
to softly embrace.
