The Way 3

Arc of rising moon Distant silhouettes; Evening settles down ~~~~~~~~~ So often it happens Notice the same broadcast; Self-talk feeds amusement ~~~~~~~~~ Evening hurries briskly TV sitcom serenades; Eyes glued to instant charm ~~~~~~~~~ Meal time harvest here Pay-per-dish varieties; Don't know what to eat ~~~~~~~~~ Broadwalk street cafe Menu temptations ooze; Set meal or a la carte ~~~~~~~~~ Listen for a voice Soft as gentle breathing; Gone before you notice ~~~~~~~~~ Fast food outlet Dangling potato wedges; Dine-in or takeaway ~~~~~~~~~ Sunny side up Egg yolk flamboyance; Pretty on a plate ~~~~~~~~~ The weather man predicts Lots of rain today; Free car wash drenching ~~~~~~~~~ A warrior's sacred pact To defend this mother land; Contingency practicals ~~~~~~~~~ Waiting time explores New city mall shoppes; Brands shouting sales ~~~~~~~~~ Leon Enriquez 14 November 2014 Singapore
