Hidup terkerdil
Ini tak kuratapi -
Kau memaknakan.
On Taming Butterflies
Tame those butterflies
Flutt’ring round your insides - Zen
Comes from knowing Him.
On the Siren Song
Resist the siren
Song of others - your own bell
Must ring eternal!
On Being a Cheapskate and Not Wanting to Pay for a Gym Membership
I haul myself up
The stairs; my Move loop ticks on
My phone - quantified!
On Powerpoint
They pay me to draw
Fancy boxes and squiggles
With “mouse” and “paper”.
On Yo-Yo Ma Playing the Cello
Glad musician plays
The cello amidst verdant
Woods - such sublime grace!
On Evensong
Meek birdsong and the
Graceful swirl of violins - my
Evening lullaby.
On The Dark Phalanx
Dark phalanx of clouds
Marching through these tall steel spires
Like divine fury.
On J M W Turner’s The Field of Waterloo
Charged lightning pours an
Angry light on this field of
Deaf, dumb, dead bodies.
On Our Prayer
I whispered to God,
And in her ear, a prayer for
His Benediction.
