A gem for a lady
Audrey Eu

A glamorous smile
In her hand more than jam

Mangosteen Preserve
From fruits organically grown

Meticulously hand-picked
Hygienically hand-processed

Bottled and packed
With love and care

Home-made flavour
Revised old recipe

With fruit pulp and rind and seed
Where super antioxidants breed

On Fair Trade Day
A Fair Trade Break

While I kept talking & talking & talking
Talking & talking & demonstrating

From nine to nine
And still I felt fine

Fine till the next day
Sunday Farmers’ Market Day

My mind was willing
But the body was protesting

My weak heart had this to say:
At home you have to stay

Fair-and-Healthy, FMIR, BREAKTHROUGH (Dedicated to SP)

A snaily and weary process
For my mosquito project to mature
But at long last a breakthrough

Remember how
In Jan 2006 approached by a super Supermarkt
I replied plainly we’re only interested in NGOs

Remember how
At the Oxfam FT Seminar in Aug 2007
I stood up and confessed I’d changed my mind

Above me
Not one lucky star
A whole galaxy

Just as my other half was again despairing
A marketing team now fell from Heaven
To help dot HK with mini selling points

Share
My joy
My EXCITEMENT
