Cats cry
Dogs fry
Snake wine
Neon sign
Draw a line
In the sand
Then cross it.
Scooters horns
Bamboo adornes
Children roam
The old stay home
There’s seldom time
To clear the grime
The skies a haze
There’s many ways
I’ll sing the praise
Of Hanoi days.
Daily rice
Noodles twice
Puppets mime
Cultures align
Draw a line
In the sand
Then cross it.
