john tiong chunghoo Poems

departing
the footprints on
the sand of time
...

the Queen's diamond jubilee
a bouquet of sunflowers -
the royal faces
...

i choose the mountain
because it is there
it drums up my spirit
i choose the sea
...

andaman sea
the emerald expanse of the sea beckons
the thick rainforest breathes mystery
the weight of five hundred million years
...

again the bush warbler
perhaps another stroke
of good luck coming
...

new school year
fresh faces everywhere
the same old bell chimes
...

the moon
sits in the sky
as if waiting for day to dawn
...

no way to live in the water
dont worry nature will make room for it
gills, fins, swim bladder, sacs
that help you float and go into the waters
...

riotious jungle growth
equally bountiful in energy
a tiger
...
