The New Journey to the West
Yew Chung International School ( Primary ), Lau , Amber – 9
Before the Great Wall of China , Demons roamed China through . The little door gods protected the innocent while up in the clouds a monkey soared high .
Above in the clouds where dreams drift high , A monkey was born from a rock nearby , The golden pelt gleaned in light , But what happens if he bites ?
Long by the story that you know , A few years after he learned kung fu , He battled to the death until time ru . The gods decided for the final attack , Which trapped him into stone until the curse was cracked . But what if he had a son which grows .
A peaceful life he will come , Flower fruit mountain is his plum , It flourishes day by day , Until the sun ’ s last ray .
A little monkey in the trees , Jumping round in full glee , Where the fruit and flowers bloom , But there ’ s still some monkey room .
Let ’ s call him Ru for now or so , May his spirit flow , For in day he will play , And night evil ’ s at bay .
He ’ s by far the king of the land , Defending it against all evil hands , Why not set out for the quest to defeat all fiends ? But should we start now or then if we get cleaned ? If I were you I would nod , oh looks like he ’ s set out already , Now get ready for another story and grab your teddy ! Hold it tight , With all your might .
In the valley , where the trees do grow , An ancient rune there sat a crow , Stood a block of stone in the trees , Written with the amber honey .
Carved the legend of stone , Where the moon shone , The crow crackled and summoned the wind , As his claws bind .
Oh dear reader , this was no normal bird , The bird and the wind slowly blurred , You may be asking , my dear reader , Then what was the bird ? It was a leader .
