After the long, straining hours,
I return to you-- my haven.
Your arms, a bringer of warmth,
pacify my restless spirit,
your heartbeat a resonance, a beat of serenity.
In the breathful whispers you speak,
a gentle reminder: all will be well.
In your embrace, the world falls silent,
and i drown in the opulence of comfort--
It is what keeps me pushing,
without which I'd come down crashing.

It starts with love.. The Power to the God Of War and Wealth Walk into a Chinese restaurant (even in Oklahoma, USA), a Chinese police station, a kung fu martial arts studio or even a Chinese temple and you often see a red faced warrior holding a heavy quan-do (spear like weapon).
