A Personal Journey Poem by Meng Lim Dr

It's too early for me
to bid the world farewell-
I still have tales too many
yet to share and tell-


the leaves they silently quiver
in the storm-stressed tree
as over my old age I hover
never weary but always free


new lands to discover
beyond Ulysses's furthest sea
I will brave the harshest water
in my endurance and tranquillity-


It's too early for me
to write my obituary
my last song sung from memory
shall be my humble epiphany
