修检休减

新芽总带来希望
靠的却是无情利剪下
躯干经历短痛后
迎来新生阳光

人生旅途
是否也应当修检休减
才能在不同阶段
不断冒出希望之芽

New bud brings hope but only grows after cutting pain. Should we let go and cut off certain things in different life stages to have new buds too?

积累因缘

人与人之间如何产生感觉
喜欢不喜欢
在幼儿往往是即刻的反应
是性别年龄样貌体型
或是积累的因缘
让他们一眼就有好感
在分别心尚未发展的年龄
能说不是后者吗？

What makes a baby or little kid likes you? It doesn't seem related to what we adult always see and feel - look, age, gender, size etc. Could it be affinity that was built upon in previous lives?

相遇可否是转机

去吧
谁能选择出生地
相遇可否是转机
从有限网方到无垠大海
前方不再安逸
为摆脱盘中餐的命运
只能放手一搏
拼过才有机会赢

Release fishes from being eaten. It may be more risky for them in the sea, yet it's a chance to be free.

喝杯回忆

就想喝杯回忆
管它铁罐热水什么化学反应
只觉得这样喝来特别香浓
绳子穿过铁盖煞是美丽

茶的贡一层皮
咖啡贡不穿衣
以前人环保将物品用到尽
现代则制造所谓环保商品

Enjoy coffee and tea in gong. Simply fragrant and environmental friendly.

频繁

机场从没去得这般频繁
圣淘沙几乎每周报到请安
东西南北千里几日还
看人汲汲营营囤积子孙粮山
看人摸黑起早只为下一餐饭
私宅平民区隔巷往返间
富贫差距情何以堪
理想如何才不沦为空谈？

Have nvr been to airport and Sentosa so frequently. Travelling cross island has become a new norm, seeing all walks of lives, and witnessing the furthest gap between rich and poor.

A non-activity cny for me this year. Took a real good rest.

除夕一早头项事

一年一度
除夕日一早的头项事
老一辈对天地与祖先的恭敬
早已超越了迷信

Yearly first thing on cny eve. Once viewed as superstition, i see it now as sincerity and piety towards mother nature and ancestor by our old generation.

礼物太酷

  

同窗三年多的友人
出国旅游总会带礼归来
这次小儿竟也有份
让热爱打鼓之人哇了又哇
平日见友人漫不经心
没想心思慎密如斯
礼物太酷，无以为报
謹以此文聊表感谢

Great thanks to friends who brought gift during their holiday trips. Special mention on the cool 'drum-in-can' gift which really wows my boy.

活生生的春

喜见社区街头卖春联
书者无师自通
自有其围观与欣赏者

厌倦了刻意营造的气息
春，却不经意在这一小角
活生生蹦了出来!

A Chinese calligraphy artist exhibiting his CNY spring couplets, bringing out the most natural lunar new year atmosphere to the people in the community!

咖啡茶大师

一杯咖啡茶好喝与否
除了豆子品质
就靠冲泡者的功夫和用心

这位手艺细腻的长者
对饮料温度的掌握
对饮者口味的体贴
炉火纯青啊
让人咖啡一杯茶一杯
流连余香忘返

可惜再拜访
摊位仍在人已非
味道只能绕心头

Good coffee not only comes from great bean but also great coffee maker, like this one at Old Airport hawker centre. A pity that she is no longer there. Pm me if anyony happens to see this coffee brewing master!


 

一夜梦幻

 

穿过林间黄泥路
等待入夜
坐上船头，微雨中
静谧流水上寻幽
丛林点点荧光闪烁
微弱却真实，为圣诞
罩上一夜梦幻

 

My first firefly viewing trip. Found the river after miles of muddy road. Appreciate the amazing little light flashing on a boat in drizzling rain. Not commercial and very original. What a beautiful Christmas evening.
