I HAVE BEEN EXISTING ALL THIS WHILE
ALONG WITH THE WHEEL OF TIME ,
DOING MY DAILY CHORES
AND MUCH MORE.
TILL I ASKED MYSELF ONE DAY
WHAT DOES THIS ALL MEAN TO ME , OH GOD;
PLEASE HELP AND SHOW ME THE WAY.
I UNDERSTOOD THAT I HAVE TO TAKE A PAUSE
SLOW DOWN AND ENJOY MY DAY, EACH DAY BECAUSE
ALL THIS TIME I HAVE BEEN RUNNING FROM MYSELF.
ITS IS TIME NOW TO SIT AND INTROSPECT
WHAT IS IT THAT I YEARN TO CONNECT
DEEP DOWN THERE ; THERE IS A LOT OF PAIN AND SORROW
WHICH IS DICFFICULT TO FORGET.
AND THEN I SEE THIS FRESHLY BLOOMED WHITE HIBISCUS FLOWER
DANCING ALONG WITH THE LOVELY BREEZE THIS SUMMER
SURROUNDED BY ROSES IN RED , ORANGE ,PINK AND YELLOW
IT DID NOT FEEL THE LACK OF LUSTRE OR MELLOW
AND IT LOOKED EXCEPTIONALLY BEAUTIFUL THIS WHITE HIBISCUS OF MINE.
IN THE COMPANY OF COLOUR ,LEAVES AND TWINE.
WHAT MAKES ME HAPPY , I THOUGHT TO MYSELF , IS IT
THE TOUCH OF WIND BLOWING ON MY FACE
THE SIGHT OF SPARROWS DANCING IN A PUDDLE OF WATER
LIFE GROWING OUT OF A SEED
GOLDFISHES RUSHING TO ME AS I STAND CLOSE TO THEM
I WONDER
AND THEN PEANUT , MY LITTLE BOY , PUTS HIS PAW SOFTLY ON MY HAND
AS IF TO SAY
HEY I AM HERE FOR YOU ,ITS NOW OR NEVER
