Dedicated to Annabel Ng

In the darkest room over distant heights,
Even there, the smallest candle will light.

In the ever teeming bustle of life,
Even there, we will hold on to the hope that is Christ.

Like a child that reaches for her Father,
Even then, we will hold on to the everlasting promise!

My Lord & Savior

In the depths of misery,
Striving to claw through mud and filth,
Hands reaching out to be free,
Seeking the life that never wilts,
Stretching, for the hand of my Savior,
Stretching, for the hand of my Lord,
Clawing, ever clawing towards a life that is greater,
Never straying from the path dearly bought,
To one day stand in the joy of my eternal God.

Procrastinating - topic given by Belicia Teo

Staring out the window,
Raindrops falling in a pattern,
Waiting beside a candle's glow,
Anticipating my father's return.

My books scattered in a mess,
The night draws close,
As I shiver from the cold no less,
Holding my blanket tight as I dozed.

Procrastinating on my work,
As I waited patiently....
A sound of a car, as my ears perked

My father came in,
I stretched my arms towards him,
And he carried me in his arms,
Drifting off to sleep,
All the night washed in a calm.

Thank you Jesus

So many ways to say this,
So many ways to write this,
Yet I am lost for words,
In my mind I am unworthy,
In my heart I am nobody,
Yet on this day of Christmas,
To my Lord and Savior,
I wish to say one thing,
Thank you, Christ Jesus.

Inspired by John 14:2

In my doubts, never once comforted,
Where comes my strength?
Where for my convictions?
Trapped, never to be free as a bird.

I looked each day to the horizons,
Marking time in my cage,
What is this life?
My sin, a curse that lies and burns.

Yet in my heart,
I shall put my trust in a promise,
There in the farthest skies,
Atop the highest clouds and domes,
Awaits the beauty of my eternal home......

Inspired by the wedding of Gerard & Judith

Beauty in a sacred promise,
A life to another,
Humbled before HE,
A vow eternal, never to falter,
Grateful in acceptance,
Sworn faithful to each other,
A marriage consecrate,
Becoming not one but two,
Forever the finest work of art,
The best-est friend till death do part......

A meaningful life inspired by Isaac Tan

Hounded by the world's ideals,
Never questioning our choices,
Never asking why,
Till the final crossroads do we recognize....

Our spirits cry for meaning,
Our hearts yearn to be accepted,
What matters in this life?
Was it gone and wasted?
Through this one must strive....

For to live is to decide,
Are we for the norms of society....
Are we beyond reproach.....
Drifting across the world's ever changing mentality.

Yet you are never alone,
For your life is not your own,
When you walk, you walk with one other,
Though unlikely it would seem,
A new path will shine like a star, brightest gleam.....
