A trivial rhyme for a trivial app.

The Eighth Hour

Haven’t been writing for awhile, so, shall start again. It’s a little bit grey, will write something brighter next time. :)

Beneath the pale moonlight,
In the dark of night,
Dragging my tired feet,
Along the empty street.
The shadow of despair,
Looming in cold air,
As I pray for faith,
In this hour of eighth.

零感

灰了,小雨坠,
累了,不想睡,
挥了,饮酒醉,
泪了,爱相随。

雨花的季节

City Rain, City Streets
年尾的热带雨季,
密密麻麻地紧逼。
一瓣瓣的小雨滴,
顿时盛开在满地。

Taking the Train

People mountain people sea
Just like honey attracts bees
While the rides are not exactly free
They just might hike the fee

What a Nice Rice

Today was a busy day, and after work, I felt really tired. Normally, I would go for a swim at the nearby swimming complex, but I thought I might fall asleep and drown, so I didn’t go. Anyway, I decided to cook some porridge, since it’s the simplest food and you derive maximum pleasure with minimum effort. Little wonder that the little ones love to eat them and are happy most of the time.

Well, I didn’t have rice at home, so I got this small packet. It has this ode to the farmer. Next time you go grocery shopping, try and look for it :)

Here’s what it reads in case the picture is not well taken.

From fertile lands afar
The finest grains of rice breathes to life
An abundant crop caressed by the sun and nurtured by joyous rain
Farmers toil with their hearts and soul
To reward all with the natural harvest of their love

The result of waiting for an hour:

Red Bowl of Rice

Rainy Night

On this dark, cold night,

Rain splashing on the pavement,

Thunders roar afar.

守护萤火虫

夜空漫游中的萤火虫,
在黑暗中携带着光芒,
毫不犹豫地一路照亮,
终究安枕在你的手心,
用一生去温暖你心窝。

Friends

From that time we met
Reaching for the same cupcake
Instead of getting upset
Expecting a nasty kick
Names were exchanged onset
Disarming further with a handshake
Setting a lifetime not to forget

Quick Update

One of the reason why I chose to write poems and prose about love is that I find that this compact form is able to crystallize the essence of this emotion much better. Or at least, that’s what I attempt to do.

Life could be better as usual. Although I am content with where I am, I do yearn for something more. I guess everyone has that desire, otherwise, life would be meaningless, or it could be that one is ready to move on to afterlife.

Been neglecting updating this blog ever since I started tweeting and updating Facebook with my mobile. It’s just too convenient (or maybe I’m just too lazy…). Well, either way, I will need to be more disciplined in updating this blog in a regular manner. I should spend less time with tweeter and facebook :)
