I Am Kung Fu
By Jimmy Pavlick, 12 years old
Litchfield Hills Aikikai
with graceful swiftness
parry and counter attack
for I am the crane
unpredictable
continuously strike fast
for I am the snake
claws slashing away
amazing ferocity
for I am tiger
with a crouching stance
snap at every weakness
I, praying mantis
legendary strength
and wisdom above all
I am the dragon
weaving words of life
beauty is always their trade
I am the poet
