hhahahaa.a.. u have a very good imagination!!! either tat u're color blindOriginally posted by fudgester:Don't look at me.... I wrote this piece when I was in Sec 4, which was.... six years ago. I can't exactly remember what I meant by 'out of life, out of this world'. I think it has something to do with a man's ambitions and aspirations.
Of course I romanticised the part about the 'crystal clear blue sea'. The seas off SG are green.
If you want to know, I wrote this piece while at Bedok Jetty.

is the song hazard ? i roughly remember the plot in a nebraska town ... haha
Let me see .. can i try ? haha .. i'm just only in sec school ...
Title : Requiescat In Pace , my heart
Since dawn of my conscience , my soul desires.
This entity , immaculate and sweet to bring joy to me.
Her golden threads , glistening bright flowing hair sways.
Her sparkling eyes , ever limpid as though proclaming her innocence.
Her raiment of pure white , ever so tempted to taint.
Her soft caress , exerts but a gentility only she is able of.
She is infallible , scintillatingly equal to true cleverness.
She speaks , with the voice of my love , music to the ears.
I covet her yet she does not belong to me.
Forever and ever , beyond and after , I shall always love you.
oops , done a intangible thing instead ...
I did my rendition of love , it's clean okay! -

Contact Lens
Barely there
you tremble, glistening with the promises of clarity
sitting on the tip of my finger
Almost there
I tremble, my trepidation and terror betrayed as
my finger travels its purposeful journey
Getting No where
as, with a flicker of lashes,
you decide to fall
and I, decisively, fail -
M-16 Rifle
She lay there standing in the rack,
side by side with the other ladies.
A metal chain put through their trigger-guards,
today would be a day of action.
Fall in! Attention! Shoulder Arms!
Present Arms! Semula! Knock it down!
The weight of a woman rests on my hands,
as the smell of gun oil mingles with sweat.
Parade dayÂ’s here, our time has come,
We don our white gloves immaculate.
Yesterday we wear blue, today we wear white,
To much the crowdÂ’s delight.
And when the time comes we lift our guns,
See them rise into the air.
The weapons come down nicely in place;
An approving look on SirÂ’s face!
Parade is over and we keep our rifles,
We finally take our rest.
But back at the stockade the armourers exclaim,
My God, what a mess! -
So many poems to read!!!
I am so happy!!! -
My little piece for the June exercise.
A Father's Day Card
--------------------------
It was just a yellowed card,
the letter cutouts that were pasted,
a bit askew,
the bunny and teddies,
a tad funny,
and on the paper a finger smudge.
No, I won't changed it for any present,
it was a gift from the heart.
"Dear Daddy, I wish you a Happy Father's Day"
it merely said,
lovingly made and written
by an eight year old innocent.
And when she handed it to me,
her eyes bright and smiling,
both little hands outstretched,
her words a torrent of love,
it was a lighthouse shinning
over uncertain seas
This card will keep reminding
the world is never perfect
but is always worth living.
-------------------------------------------------- -
Paper Cranes
One for the day when we first met,
Two for days we spend as friends.
Three for days of fun and laughter,
Four for days of chatting till the dayÂ’s end.
Five for weeks of meeting for movies,
Ten for weeks of outings and dining.
Fifteen for weeks of deeper understanding,
Twenty for weeks of knowing each otherÂ’s mind.
Ten for months of wondering if thereÂ’s more,
Twenty for months of being unsure.
Thirty for months of honeymoon coupledom,
Forty for months of just being together.
Twenty for the hours we spent apart,
Forty for the hours doubt left its mark.
Sixty for the hours tears fell on their own,
Eighty for the hours of knowing it's not meant to be.
And five for the loving memory of the one we love most,
365 paper cranes in a bottle.
