It was once
more than a year ago
when I had not
chosen to be here
But as always, Fate
chooses as She pleases
and giggles as She teases
The sunset views as I walked
along the plains
and as I lay down on the tiny, rustic jetty
overlooking the graceful streaks of colors in the sky
and listen to the silent whispers of the idyllic lake
as it caresses the soul, and heart
with ripples, and bubbles, of pleasure and leisure
The flowerbeds of myriad colors
brightly seeps in my heart as I pleasantly walk
along the peaceful aisles,
each morning
the yellow sweethearts
fresh and serenely joyful
remind of love and care
A gentle touch, sweet and mild
left imprints of finesse,
slowly and steadily
made my heart light, like a feather in the wind
and soulfully sweet, like chirping birds in the woods
To leave a place,
there are mixed feelings, of course
as one would have, when one has loved
As I take the slow, reluctant
and sometimes poignant, walk
away from Curtin and Miri,
I wonder:
Will the faithful stars look as fine, as I look at them
so beautifully here?
Will the flowers and landscape evoke the same
passion and romance, of the darlings I have here?
Will tranquility be, a trusted companion still?
And will there be cycles of joy and contentment
as I have here in the early mornings
and late evenings?
So many uncertainties
so many dilemmas
playing so playfully, in the realms of my heart
giggling, as it sees me torn between
a choice of heart and mind
There is solace however,
for I always believe
"There is a reason for everything
and everything is always reasonable."
What more,
I do not, and must not,
wait for things which...
