City Harvest
November rains
Monsoon starts wet;
Nature redecorates
~~~~~~~~~
Orchard Road stretch
Decked for Christmas;
Good for business
~~~~~~~~~
So sad this scandal
Funds embezzled;
Ego versus love
~~~~~~~~~
Love works well
Yes you can tell;
Cash now casts spells
~~~~~~~~~
Sound song and dance
Can mesmerise;
Glitzy paradise
~~~~~~~~~
Once upon a tale
That gospel sway;
Now corruption steals
~~~~~~~~~
Sad, sad refrains
Pain comes to snort;
Empty counts gain
~~~~~~~~~
Hollywood cheer
Baubles at Christmas;
Weary world in tears
~~~~~~~~~
Write words
Wave wins;
Wrong works
~~~~~~~~~
No matter what
Happens right now;
Love keeps loving
~~~~~~~~~
Jolly greets holly
Year-end reasons;
Joyful blessings greet
~~~~~~~~~
