Puisi: Keep Yearning

Teruslah kau merindu..

Ia dicipta sang biang cinta,

ciptaan tanpa cela.

Ia melampaui ribuan doa,

melampaui harapan

dan cita.

Teruslah kau merindu..

Tak kau lihat aku

depan matamu,

Tak pula aku hilang dari

pandanganmu.

Hingga saat kau hadirkanku

dalam penuh ruang

dan waktumu

Teruslah kau merindu..

Bukankah Ia yang

jadikan dua adalah

satu?

Poem: Garden of Roses [2]

They have come
to trade my
garden of roses
with a mine of gold.

I refuse!

They have come
to trade my
garden of roses
with heaven and all.

I refuse!

Then, my dear,
you came
with only one
single smile.

The garden of roses
in me,
became yours

for free.

Poem: Garden of Roses [1]

A rose
You've planted
between
my heart beats,

it grows,
it spreads,
and blossoms forth.

I'll watch over it
to the root,
'till none dare retard it.

When you come back,
my dear,

you'll find garden
of roses

in me.

Poem: I Am Drowning

The shore
bring me back
the thought of your hair,

The wind
bring me back
the thought of your voice,

The reef
bring me back
the thought of your courage,

The ocean
bring me back
the thought of your eyes,

The fish within
bring me back
the thought of myself.

I am drowning.

Puisi: Api Kepada Dingin

(Taken by Wong)

Tidakkah kau lihat,

Lidah api tidak pernah
membunuh Dingin.

Tidakkah kau mafhum,

Lidah api tidak pernah
membunuh Dingin

Mereka bercumbu
menjadi satu

menjadi Puisi
