What Gives

(Dedication: For Alvin Pang, a local poet.) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Watch what happens right now and here; Hope comes to call with gifts of voice; Ask to sharpen your sense of cheer; Trust beyond gall the glimpse of choice. Grace floods and fills all time and space; Intuit the best of fate that hurls; Vouch as you heal the hurts you face; Enter your quest with poise that swirls; See fond goodwill that charms this place. Urge funds appeal in glimpse of grace; Sense wonder fill the placid face. Open your heart to soul's sure light; Use each new start to capture sight; Reap conscious art that springs so bright. Now comes the spring where flowers grow; Allow your span to focus well; Meet what life brings with calmness that glows; Explore fine plans with thoughts that dwell; Success can sing in sacred flow. Heart knows the way beyond what's seen; Endow your space with happy things; Rise up each day to see within; Expect to trace your sure being. Leon Enriquez 01 July 2014 Singapore
