Merlion City 6

A FOND TRIBUTE: (TO OUR OLD-GUARD LEADER) Visionary leader who forged our way In your twilight years kind humour attends A little red-dot that works sanguine play Once upon a time history did stray A city state found dire straits in harsh trends Visionary leader who forged our way A man's decisive stance framed light of day A vision aligned our bold action plans A little red-dot that works sanguine play It's easy to ask but so hard to pay Our modern day culture defies intent Visionary leader who forged our way No one can truly understand your sway Our stress and strain and ample discontent A little red-dot that works sanguine play A bright new team helms the future array May fate be kind as we go round the bend Visionary leader who forged our way A little red-dot that works sanguine play Leon Enriquez 16 Mar 2014 Singapore
