National Day

Notice the mood of festive poise,
Allow fond good to spur fine voice,
Thrill feisty brood that sanguine choice;


Imprint sure signs where crowds now peak,
Observe clear finds as action speaks,
Note peace of mind as posture tweaks;


Align the day with message bright,
Look to wise play to set firm sights.
Dance on the way as style streams light,


Abstract as soul that wears a face,
Yield precious whole to profound grace.
Gain now unfolds that savvy pace,


Love sparks a mode of actual thrill,
Intent sums code in tact that wills;
Mind finds the lode where true health fills,


Poise shows in truth the touch of wit,
Sounds flavour proof in poignant fit,
Exploit proud moves as grandeur hits.
