In Memoriam

COLUMBARIUM THOUGHTS (For my late mother Eng Neo.) ---------------------------------- Slow loiter here, Brief moments sight Solemn my dear -- Death's certain light! Blood ties shape moods Here as we glimpse This surreal good, Etches that stream. In life's passage Through time and space, Love's a message That attracts grace. He who knows "Why?" Can live and cope With lows and highs With faith and hope. Fine weather greets Our presence here -- Memorial street To meet quaint cheer. Right here we stand, Gather to see -- Red niche slab can Old era free. At last, we see Rest side by side Two urns surely, Calmly abide. We loiter here: Family comes To feel old cheer, Pray on a psalm. Leon Enriquez 21 June 2014 Singapore
