Oh How I Remember

Looking back to my first night in Hong Kong

I remember the night I rode the open carriage,
above all that traveled beside me.
Bringing me closer to neon light.

As darkness set in, a new face of this city awoke.
People came out to explore a familiar city, both strangers
and natives alike could feel the wonder given to us
by this brightly lit face.

I remember moving to the cement from my ride up high,
I remember feeling the brick as I ventured forth into a night unknown.
The scent of food and fish, the sounds of people and cool wind rushing through.
Oh how I remember, the gem I explored that neon night.

I tried to bring back the feelings and things I experienced my first night in Hong Kong.
