Fire Monkey
Cunningly swinging
On the trees of life
Playing his pranks
Winding up the wife

Winding up the wife
Enjoying every challenge
Using his brain
Owning it. Bossing it
Playing the game

He's a Chinese Monkey
- a little bit spunky
A little bit of attitude
A little bit of grit

Dashing, darting
With daring and drive
Top of the tree
And feeling alive

Top of the tree
And feeling alive
Dancing with spirit
Fire and wit
Not at all annoying
- well, maybe just a bit(!)

Friendly when he wants to be
He'll pat you on the back
Can get a bit competitive
Never one to slack

Gregarious. Free.
Can give it some welly

Has the metal and the dignity
To get himself through

Note:
2016 will be the year of the Monkey. Fire Monkey is the zodiac sign of anyone born between 8th February 2016 and 27th January 2017 - also, for anyone born between 12th February 1956 and 30th January 1957.
Apparently, I'm a Tiger and they don't get on with Monkeys. Had I been born a day later, I'd have been a rabbit, and they get on with Monkey's OK.
Might one day write a poem on my own Chinese Zodiac sign, but for now I only hope my anti-monkey prejudice doesn't show in this poem…

David,
So that`s where all those jerky, jack in the box fights in those Chinese films comes from.
