the deep blue sea

The deep blue sea
The strong wind carrying it
The popping of debris and objects
Every clue the end of a story

The cyclonic caresses
The undercurrents in the deep sea
The hands which hold the objects
Exclusivity the way it stays

Every few seconds
The images will be unseen
The way of search and rescue
The long tiring and windy nights

The night of the lost souls
Burying deep in the blue
For ages of history
A new cargo sinking deep


looking for a partner


Looking for a partner
You don't have to rush it
If you do you will fall
The cycle of desperation

Looking for a partner
It is for a life time
It isn't just for a year or two
It is better to stay single roaming free

When you have many to choose
Pick the one who will stay the marathon
Don't pick for the short spring
You will be left gasping for air

Look for one who understands
Beyond what you did and your past history
Respect and honest in the head
Writing the new pages today and tomorrow

the darkness never go away


The darkness never go away
It is there for all of us to see
Even in day light we can't escape
The shadows will keep us company

It is just waiting
When we do our silly mistakes
Once we fall blindly into it
The darkness will make us cry

We shouldn't think there is tomorrow
It is just so far ahead out of our reach
So don't ever think we have the time
We should enjoy life every light

The darkness never go away
It makes us realize we shouldn't sleep on it
Go live life to the fullest in our times
Otherwise the darkness will make us cry

falling into troubled water




borrowed malaysiakini.com

The silence of the night
Falling into troubled water
The tears of losing
The faces once we knew

The questions are many
The answers are few
There is no use finger pointing
It's time to swallow sorrow and pain

When the tears are gone
The stories of those left behind
In memories and its history of tragedy
It's no use getting angry and upset

Let the past be gone
Remember their lives and contributions
It looks like the souls in troubled water
Burying deep in the blue sea

the heat of the sun


The heat of the sun
It never wants to shade
The burning rays hitting down
On every living and non-living

Under shade of trees
The heat will not go away
The hot wind blowing along
There is no way to hide

Some just can't take it
It will cause them headaches
In the heat of the sun
The rays will just keep shooting

The utility company will laugh
The households will switch air-conditioning units
The meters will turn quickly in cycles
The heat of sun money make for some


















no water in the morning


In the Sunday morning
Bright light in the sky
Some get up late
Some early as the dogs bark

The sound of motorcycles
The sound of cars passing by
In the early Sunday drive
The market of packed voices

In the water episode
The burst pipes near the college
Suddenly no water in the taps
No notice just the silence

In the Sunday morning
Some never know about it
The sleepy minds in space
The taps run dry for a little while

it's the leaving of the night



It's the leaving of the night
You found it hard to say
What life will be in the end?
When you don't want to stay

The breezes of the night
It is just in the mind
When you don't want to stay
Leaving the night as cold as ice

When will the fire keep burning?
On the cold bed at night
There is no one to hold it
The candle never lights it up

It's the leaving of the night
Leaving the night as cold as ice
When will the fire keep burning?
If you don't turn and walk away


life of renewal

As the years go
The renewal will come
Every time in a circle
A new generation

At the door
The opening of a new
The smell of the young
The circle of a time

Then the eyes see
The past, the present and the future
By nature it is the natural process
Cry not when time has come and gone

As the years go
The tears and laughter
The spots of history
On a quiet day many reflections

The wind will sing
The breezing of wine and songs
As time moving with a smile
Reflections of a time to come

izzy in the pool

The goggle on her face
The pool of blue
The face I thought I knew
Something different I saw
I couldn't recognize her
I thought I saw somebody new
The red cap on her head
Took a picture before she dipped in
The pool of blue
The smile on her face
And her broken tooth?
In the pool of blue
There she made the splashes

Izzy in the pool

still searching


There is still no closure
The fate of MH370 in the air
The search and rescue operations
Now in the Indian Ocean

The man-hours in the hunt
Searching for the elusive plane
Day 15 of its disappearance
There is still no conclusive evidence

Theories spread
The story of MH370
Captured by aliens
Hidden by genie

The minds of people
Conjuring up the plots
Modern gadgets can't find
The fatigue of patience going in

The flight of MH370
Is it in the deep blue sea?
Is it in the deep green forest?
Maybe genie wants to play

the blood donors


The white vampires came
With tubes to take it away
The blood donors
They smile happily

The lives of immortality
The renewing blood supplies
Giving hope for others
On a time of emergency

Nobody will run away
The vampires of white uniform
Carrying out tasks to make it work
The dripping blood flowing into the blood bags

And the blood donors do not cry
Drawing out blood for a good cause
Giving hope to somebody in need

In a day of giving it back

age of life


Age of life
The milestones of many
The spots of life
Part of joy; part of regret

The history of bygone years
The years walk away so silently
Leaving behind the stories
It will never go back

Tomorrow lies there
A new page to write indeed
In life mistakes will be made
This is how life is earned and learned

Age of life
The joy it will bring
The faces of knowing
The balloons and cake

Tears of joy
With loved ones around
The pockets of messages
The songs of wonderful tonight


the walls of silence


The walls of silence
Looking in the seas
The blue waves and ripples
Deep into its bed

Do they look at the right areas?
The red herring plotting to the seas
The pings ringing in the air
The spot can't be found

It's the game of hide and seek
A big jet plane disappeared from sight
Modern technologies and gadgets
The failure to find the sign

The jet plane flew across land and mountains
The islanders saw on Saturday morning
It isn't to crash the plane for a cause
Some of passengers have knowledge values

The jet plane in some remote jungle
There it is clouded in secrecy
It isn't kissing in the deep ocean
It is the human cargo of expertise


teach your children


Teach your children
Stay away from strangers
Do not divulge information
Do not engage in conversation

Teach your children
The predators out there
They come in suits
Expensive cars bearing gifts

Teach your children
Stay alert on the streets
Playing in group in the parks
Look out for strangers carrying gifts

Teach your children
Always recognize number plates
Faces, eyes and colour of skin
Remember telephone numbers

Look out for strangers
Many children are lost on the streets
Once they are in the black net
It is good as saying goodbye!

the songs of the night


The songs of the night
It waves you into sleeping mode
Out of the body floating away
In the stars of brightness sky

Once you reach there
You feel you are in paradise
You feel you can fly
Anywhere anyplace anytime

The night whispers
You just don't want to wake up
The paradise of lights and songs
The angels smile with you

Every night you will be there
You can't forget the experience
Of the night whispers and of angels
They make you forget...

the town council


The town council's enforcement division
They shouldn't work in straight shift
How to enforce the rules and regulations?
When in the night the night operators smile

Look at the hawkers and night markets
The disobeying of rules and regulations
There is no enforcement officer in sight
It is practically no rules night

Some may pay for a few tables
In front of the five foot ways
In reality they will occupy the parking lots
Putting up tables and chairs

Even the cowherds know
Public holidays and weekends
They cows are left to walk freely
Cow dungs on the roads

Where are the enforcement officers?
Working in the day forget about the night
It is time district officers change the mindset
It is to walk the by-laws


he came he ran




He came on stage
After days of silence
Reading from his prepared text
He said his piece and left

No question no answer
What kind of a leader we have?
He should be brave to handle questions
This was a tragedy affecting the nation

No..he turned away
He couldn't face the foreign reporters
He couldn't handle the barrage of questions
If he couldn't answer, stand there and be honest

This is the weakness of a leader
It shows in the world of foreign journalists
Instead of in the forefront of the tragedy
He hides away in his office









the days are gone


The oceans deep
It is hard to see
Up in the air
The currents take it

Flying like eagles
Looking for preys
Down in the oceans
The ripples of blue seas

The days had gone
The dry tears came
The tragedy of our time
A word of history

The hunger strikes
The angry mob
It makes no difference

MH370 no clear evidence

no use to cry


No use to cry
The unknown is
Beyond our minds
We can imagine
The good old times
The hugs and smiling faces
The fly to the air
Now it is just a whisper
Blowing like the wind
The faint hope of survivors
Imagine in the vast blue sea
The eyes from the sky
The flying big birds try
What's there to look?
When there is no proof?
In the vast ocean it lies?
Imagine that
No use to cry

wishing for the rain

Wishing for the rain
Umbrella still gets hold in the rack
Listening to the sound
It never comes at all

The cloudy sky hovering by
Plotting its course slowly
Until it reaches the mountain
The clear sky comes out to smile

Wishing for the rain
The sky of sunshine blue
There is no cloud in the sky
A day of dry air

The kitten on the roof
Wagging its tail trying to hypnotize a bird
Creeping slowly for the kill
The bird sees and flies away

Wishing for the rain
It never falls today
The night market doing a roaring business
On the field of cars, motorcycles and bicycles
