john tiong chunghoo Poems

Ramon Crater arrival
our overflowing sweat and beer
as we toast each other
...

he is full of the milk of love
nectare, pollens, the sweetest
of passion fruits and multi hued
soft petaled flowers
...

it snuggles close
half closed eyes
rolling with white
its forelegs loosely
...

refreshing dawn mist, crisp air
and sunshine tiptoe through tender lips,
shower their warmth over a secluded valley
where a lady rolling in pink dances
...

opportunities
first light brightens
things up
...

school holiday
lone corridors, classrooms
A bird chirps and flutters by
...

fair game
nature opens a race
for climbing to the top
...

sunlight on
rotting chestnut
little insects run separate ways
...

sprinting
one ant teases
chases the other
...

don't imitate me
it's like trying to put an extra inch
to a foot
...
