Haiku Surreal 6

Loiter here
Linger there;
Going nowhere


Stormy weather
Merciless rain;
Drives people indoors


Waiting moves slowly
Grumbling is fast;
What's up doc?


Unfinished sloth
Idleness piles plenty;
Rude awakening


Passion
Tension;
Option


Too soon
Too late;
Too much


Memory makes
A jumbled odd picture;
More or less the same


Look beyond seeing
Still life moves;
Change dictates show


Show and tell
Your tale in time;
Dismiss mere gain


Rich and poor
Mix and mingle;
Charm elevates


Timeless ripples
Caused by many;
Different strokes apply


Count and recount
Blessings you send;
Learn to give double


Trouble finds trouble
Be truly aware;
Love hurts a lot


Tell a story
Sing a song;
Be a kind light


Timeless moments
Rapture delights;
Change intervenes


Esplanade fireworks
National Day Parade;
My country, my people


Here we are now
Years vanished quickly;
Ageing bones creak


Cash in the pocket
Waiting to unfurl;
Happy spending spree


Jewellery shoppe
Posh with diamonds;
Glitz of precious stuff


By the bay front
People in clusters;
Worry-free escapades
