Chinese Calendar

Chinese year assignment Starting in 2000 Dragon, hissing Serpent Darting into Horse and Sheep who flock To see the Monkey Pulling feathers from the Cock Whose crow sticks in his craw Causing Dog to raise his paw As man’s most faithful flunkey Tries to flush out Boar Rat eats every box of grain Making hungry Ox complain While Tiger looking for his share Puts the fear of God in Hare Who ends the cycle then and there So we can start again Staying in the same array Shifts of 2 hours every day Dragon starts the daily mayhem Signing on at 7 am
