john tiong chunghoo Poems

long, round, or triangle
immerse them into time
and they all straighten into
line one day or the other,
...

when less is more
when ups and downs are meant
for that breathtaking adagio
when failures are strings
...

it takes the padi
three months
to write its
poem of love
...

never mind if everybody
complains he is irritable

god makes you two meet up
...

what inspired this poem
is mary poppins, the caring
British governess who carries
under her little pink umbrella
...

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

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

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

haiku
between the lines
reality and make belief
...

anger
I told my wrath
my wrath did end
...
