5. Spoken solo: My cloth dragon sways from side to side…chasing a sun ball while small children hide. My brother plays a drum, my father the gong, and mother and sister….join in the song. Firecrackers pop and evil spirits flee, as lion dancers dance so menacingly. Happy New Year! Or Gung Hay Fat Choy! Sweep out your sorrows. It’s time now for joy!
