2 – We DID stop at a small village before that where there were erected huge rocks we could walk among. we also hiked up a country lane to a very secluded, rustic, very OLD burial 'cave-crypt' we could walk into. Forbidden City - Beijing? i don't find a definition i like for your use of " sophistry" bri :)

1 - I'm enjoying this. in stanza 3: china with " C" ? . And i laughed at this: " well you know what I refer to." You could mean Hadrian's Wall (" in your neck of the woods" ;) Or Trump's Wall in mine. With a van-tour we visited Stonehenge; i was disappointed as we could not walk up to it.

sombre paddy fields the wheel turns and the dragon flies, over the Forbidden City. we eat, unauthentic food by candle light and paper lanterns, eating sophistry with chop sticks......so touching and impressive. Beautiful poem having nice penmanship is amazingly shared. Thanks for sharing.
