Longing

A sudden longing,
To revisit my old house,
The place where I used to imagine,
Recreating the world of Enid Blyton,
The enchanted place that she speaks of,
Where bluebells are fairy lamps,
And tiny mushroom are fairy’s ring..

An ordinary garden it is,
Not enough to fit two cars,
Surrounded by wired fence,
Where my fingers love to trace,
Stretches to a stone pillar,
Covered with moss,
That brings news from afar,
Delivered by a Man

Right beside it lays a grave,
With colourful balsams,
Pink, white, purple and red,
Surrounded by pebbles,
To honour my dead fishes..

Next door lives two huge dogs,
Abby likes the swing,
Dooley loves the cement floor,
Such huge and fierce creatures,
I have the fortune to be their friends,
But they left when I was 12

Flashback after flashback,
Hibiscus and coconut tree,
Neighbour practicing his sonatina,
Lil'Speedy digging grandma’s garden,
Christmas tree look alike,
My mother’s blue hydrangea,
My backdoor neighbour,
With her dog Sherkan,
My roller skates adventure,
Biking with other kids,
Grandma’s vegetable garden,
Sugarcane, beans, pegaga, spring onions,
So much more memories..

I wish to walk upon it again,
I really wish I could,
Seeing it with new eyes,
What would I change?
Maybe nothing at all,
Just to embrace it,
Once more..

Just once..

The Broken Spirit

The broken spirit,
Lost its zest,
Shines no brighter than a dying star

The broken spirit,
Shattered by love,
Cursed thee self from resurrection

The broken spirit,
Dresses for the world,
With eye shadow and fake blush,
A glow that never last,
So the world could be oblivious,

Thee walk the earth,
As sun rise and set,
Yet all is plain black,
Time is infinity…

Oh broken spirit,
Weep no more please,
There are some,
Who see through your veil,
Know not what to do..

To Speedy With Love


To Speedy, with love,

The most loyal dog,
Despite a lil' temper,
He is a wonderful dog,
Alwiz stuck close to the family,
Right beside our sofa,
As we watch TV,
While he takes his nap.

A brave hero indeed,
Have fought snakes to rats,
Foe in his eyes,
Danger to those he guards,
Protective over his master and family..

A strong soul as well,
Fought cancer with strength,
Lived on for almost two years,
Today, we return him to god and goddess ..
Released from the sufferings of Earth..

A Haloween baby indeed,
Came to us only in November 1995,
Today he departs on 12th November 2007,
May you rest well in heaven,
Among all the brightest stars.

We will miss your handshake,
Your smile,
Your warm welcome when we return,
Your craze over juicy bones,
Your cuddly warm fur,
Your pom pom tail,
That thunderous bark,
Your face during your rat-hunt,
Your tricks to run out of the gate,
And all those wonderful moment you gave us...

We love you,

Speedy aka 'Fei Lou' aka 'Furball'
