A collection of thoughts~

haha. an inside source has just informed me that I'm becoming more organised in my blog and it's so not me. haha. and so I was thinking in what ways have I been more organised, and all I could think of is that for my titles, I vary between ~ for posts with more meaning and - for my stories. haha=) okay, maybe better paragraphing skils.

anyway, I have finally composed my very first Singaporean poem!haha, it developed on its' own early this morning.

here's the long-awaited work(long-awaited as least on my part):

Traveling back in a cab
hoping to catch the first rays of the morning sun
but all I could see was the same broken, faded moon
it didn't occur to me to stand out there to wait for the sun to rise

I crept slowly into the house
I figured it could be too early to wake the occupants of the house
I felt like a teenager about to be caught for partying till too late
or like a student who manages to avoid going for morning school

The first thing to greet me was the stack of letters
one mail from the government, the other from the RBC ministry
the first on my CPF savings, the latter on the riches I have in Christ
then I walked to go to sleep, my parents woke to go to work

A brief exchange of words
the timing seemed almost pre-arranged
and as I laid on my bed
a series of thoughts led me to sleep

A night started off with worship and intercession
continuing with cheese fries, prata and teh lima ice
the belting out of love songs
the shooting and world-conquering games

A night worth the losing of sleep over
a night spent with the people who matter
it turned out that it wasn't about what we brought
but what we received from being around the family of God.

The first
Friday and Saturday
of the month of
February.
