The courier will depart next day, she's told. <br />She sews a warrior's gown all night. <br />Her fingers feel the needle cold. <br />How can she hold the scissors tight? <br />The work is done, she sends it far away. <br />When will it reach the town where warriors stay?<br /><br />Li Po<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/ballads-of-four-seasons-winter/
