Going Home
We're going home today
Luxurious manor
Patiently yearningly
Dreamingly going now
Specially-designed craft
Happily we're boarded
Anticipating pair
Orphans we always thought
Lush tender green young stocks
Lush green, pasture-like fields
Bambo shoots leaves and stalks
Heavenly-like yumminess
Mysterious China
Unseen new home awaits

Only three others in Memphis, Tennessee, remain, scheduled to leave next year. [Click here to read more]
- 2. Right after my retirement (2001) during our three week visit to China we visited Chengdu to see the Sichuan Giant Panda Sanctuaries [China, Moscow, and the Panama Canal travel items were on my bucket list-you can search my blog for our 2006 Moscow to St. Petersburg River Cruise via Viking Cruises glimpses here]

ReplyDeleteGood to be back home ,for the Pandas!!!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous creatures! Chengdu is on my bucket list... hope I can see the pandas some day!
ReplyDeleteOh, you did it so well! And I love your subject matter.
ReplyDeleteThese Pandas are yet another marvel of creation. How gently we treat some creatures over others.
ReplyDeleteI hope they'll be happy in their new home
ReplyDeleteI also read about the Panda returning to China ... DC's loss. You composed a lovely poem containing the perfect descriptive adjectives/adverbs.
ReplyDeletePerhaps they will be better off but I regret having never seen one of these unique animals.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful lines with beautiful pics. Nice.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for sharing these stunning panda photos! (Sara)
