Murmurings

Two young lovers
Seeing eye to eye;
Ecstatic romance


Promises made
Language of love;
Reality can be harsh


July sun-bathing
Local fruitage surprise:
Durians, mangosteens, rambutans!


Two yellow butterflies
Zigzagging flight path;
Bourgainvillea landing


Sweet nectar sip
Momentary focus;
Long haul to tall casuarina


Old banyan tree witness
School boy quarrels echo;
All gone away


Time passes quickly
So many ambitious kids;
Now preside over meetings


Old school mates 
Chance encounter;
Discuss happenings


Witty old father checks
Vivacious mother tags;
Facebook excursions


Fancy smart phones
Tablets for dummies;
Slow learning curve


Purple flowers
Creeping vines on fence;
Morning salutation


Morning Glory flowers
Here at dawn;
Gone by dusk
