Journeys

Journeys begin
Watch pulse of heart;
Intent conspires


Old Casuarina tree
By school compound;
Witness to history


Stormy morning
Thunder and lightning;
Moody weather lashing


My old school dome
Now a museum;
To cement yesterday


Book shop retreat
Between covers;
Too much to know


Tour agency desk
Brisk bookings;
Now here or somewhere?


Chinatown hotspot
People congregate;
Worship by shopping


Ancestral shrine
We commune here;
Our forebears await


Clogged intersections
Crossroad commentary;
Noisy traffic jam
