Since our wonderful team member Wendy was not with us for the month of China I wrote her a poem to summarize what we experienced there. For safety reasons all names and locations I use in relation to China are names I made up. Enjoy!
To our dearest Wendy
We need to fill you in
On our crazy
China situation
Our location was really pretty cool
They spit and hacked and we had a lot of really strange stool
There was a yack attack
At the monastery which was wack
And we shared the Gospel
With a police officer named Zack
Slopey Mountain Cafe
Was where we'd hang out and play
We'd take orders, talk to foreigners, and sip 8 Treasure all day
We waited and prayed
For Brother Eugene's friend Jake
Until he showed up with Rochelle
We could have sworn he was fake
We prayed for vest man to find joy and hook us up with a deal
We visited fruit man and bakery girl to provide our breakfast meal
Soup, noodles and Tsampa we were cravin'
But the spicy hot peppers set our mouth's a blazin'
Milk tea and ice cream were our guilty pleasures
And our feasts at purple flower we will cherish forever
Our hotels were sweet
They washed the floors with toilet water
Every once in a while
We would even take a shower
Lonam and Tama were our Tibetan friends
Maybe someday we can all meet again
All and all China was a ball
When we found out you were returning we nearly fell off a wall
Our team is whole
We finally get to greet
LOL a team of six
Will make South Africa real neat!
