Gobi Desert
Diocesan Boys’ School Primary Division, Jason Tsui, Poetry: Group 2
A large, remote and unexplored land,
Be it blistering hot, or freezing cold,
Covered, rather with rocks than with sand,
But quite a magical place in fact.
The Gobi wolves stand tall and proud,
The endangered Gobi bears prowl around.
Nocturnal jerboas jump up high,
Asiatic ibexes can climb higher than you or I.
But this is not all to this mysterious land.
Dubbed the “Mecca” of the fossil world,
Dinosaurs once lived and died there.
The Gobi desert was once and still is a glorious land,
But is now reduced to a barren piece of land.
