Internalized emotions wrought
quotidian psychological oppression
retrospective reflection courtesy
20/20 hindsight reveals absolute zero
positive development of body, mind, and spirit
extreme agitation compromised
maturation, education, and socialization
every year since being
born free and clear of obvious defects
minus alien aberration, Russian collusion...,
nor deplorable crooked Hillary accusation
and submucous cleft palate
inducing severe nasality
fraught with arduous speaking difficulty
coping, fraternizing, integrating
within ordinary circumstances
alienated, defied, horrified,
mortified, scared, zapped
yours truly, albeit analogous
experiencing ferocious, hellacious, torturous...
suffering predicated on suppressing
and/or repressing moderate slights
inflicted upon withdrawn younger self,
who lacked adroit, deft, heft...
coping with typical situations
subsequently aggravating,
exacerbating, jinxing...
to cultivate, generate,
liberate locked potential
hypothesized, premised, yoked
infantile grievous inconsolable crying
unsolved behavioral mystery
venting only for my "mommy dearest"
would utter (this from hearsay)
exhibiting extreme aversion
if other than thee birth mother
comforted, cradled, cocooned...,
an extremely reticent individual
buckling as strapping bullies
relentlessly belted jibed, taunted...
said teasing begat intimidation
(oft times mentioned other poems)
scrawny kid (me) cowed, fawned, irked,
nonetheless I remained passive against
blistering, hectoring, teasing,
which apothegm turning other cheek
avoided getting smashed pumpkin face
courtesy subservient stance
devotional acquiescence help me dog pose
prayer temporarily answered
harboring entire being
ten thousand feet beneath
avast sea of dejection
time and again repeated
alas crass harassment
absorbed into nucleus of every cell
anchored barnacle encrusted tenuous pride
in short shrift
brewing, abjection, dejection, humiliation...
"NOT FAKE" misery
inducing suicidal ideation
spurring serious delineation
allowing, enabling, proffering
permanent salvation uber vacation
among livingsocial years later overlaid
earthshaking fault finding
misbehavior gifted from
those I called mother and father.
He silences the heart who is afraid,
with gentle promises He’s made…
He delights in the spirit who gives,
those whose dream still lives…
He destroys the darkness of pain,
with grace that quiets the rain…
He remembers the heart who believes,
despite the sorrow that grieves…
He never lets anyone down,
expresses the greatest love around…
He heals the heart who is hurting,
introducing hope that’s converting…
He restores the broken from their weeping,
revealing a magnificent that is worth keeping…
He erases the shadows with His grace,
creating a song that hearts can’t replace…
He delivers the soul from eternal destruction,
rebuilding a life through amazing reconstruction…
He abides on the inside, where He heals us,
pursuing the hearts whose adoration we’ll discuss…
He is the answer to my prayers, forever there,
because of His love, I’ll never need to despair…
He leads the spirit to a paradise of hope,
fulfilling expectations so hearts can cope…
He is wiser than the sun, shining in the sky,
promising a love that will never ask why…
He smiles on the dancing leaves of autumn,
reassuring those who have hit rock bottom…
He is the peace that puts the soul at ease,
beautiful devotion can be felt in the breeze…
He colors the lives of those He loves deeply,
with hues of creativity that inspires completely…
He is my whole world, my life, my reason,
without Him, my heart is out of season…
He happens in the trembling moments of joy,
sharing a kindness that will never annoy…
He is the whisper, the sigh, the breathtaking,
astonished by this love that is truly earthshaking…
He is my hope, my faith and my peace…
I know – I must decrease so He can increase…
He is the answer to all the prayers I’ve prayed,
cherishing this love that can always persuade…
He is my life, my love, my everlasting,
grace this good assures that love is the forecasting…
He kindles a faith that is so amazing,
because of Him, my heart is ever praising!
CM For A Leader
There lies in him lots of practical wisdom in the thoughts of the Sarawak CM.....
He knows his mind and doing his best is far reaching as he administers...
The Chief Minister admits, in his own words, Sarawak has lots of catching up to do..
In the 2 years he has been in office, there has been 50 resolutions or so..
He highlighted his hard hitting labeling of some federal policies as stupid...
And elaborated his state's latest earthshaking recognition of using English..
To him, English is a universal language of knowledge, technology and more...
He stressed the urgent need for one to look and see, to listen and hear more...
To him there lies a great difference if one were to be indifferent there...
He made his stand very clear, when extolling Sarawak for Sarawakians...
In his own words, cessation from federal is a no but autonomy is more than ok...
To appreciate the some startling changes he has initiated and implemented..
It would be an education if one were to look up on his many innovative moves..
Friends, take time to view and listen to this short video of the man behind these moves....
So as to appreciate the many startling changes he has implemented. ..
Surprisingly he omitted to mention his efforts of giving recognition...
To the Dayaks, a majority race in Sarawak, as a valid race in documentations...
A giant leap of official identity for this officially overlooked indigenous race ...
That wallowed in the danger of being lesser known than the mascot of the state..
That proud and colourful bird that lends its name to the Sarawak state...
For all Malaysians, Sarawak is the famous Land Of the Hornbill...
With CM Adenam Satem, therein lies the hope his state will be a king of the hill...

Foggy mists engulfed the bright
When raindrops fell throughout the night
The lampposts glowed at midnights dark,
When sweethearts kissed at Lover's Park
Soaked wet through with glistening skin
Revealing all true love within
Drenched and over awed by charms
Entranced as held in each other's arms
The fluid rhythms, realm of rain
Where lamplights stream did gild the lane
Wet leaves dripped dreams from tinseled trees
And pulses flowed like rolling seas
The sultry spark of lover's kiss
Roused the feeling of lukewarm bliss
The tender touch of misty blow
Caused the heated hearts to glow
They sizzled and sparked like firework display
The world around them faded away
Transported to another place
Locked inside their warm embrace
Together they braved the soaking rains
For they were lost in lover's lanes
They could not bear to say goodbyes
Lost in the storm of lover's eyes
Passions roused beneath a silent moon
Hanging onto skies where stars are strewn
Rhythms of dreams ripe for the taking
Trembling in the kisses, utterly earthshaking
"Waves gently lapped the shore nearby
As we embraced, my love and I
My fingers touched my sweethearts hair
It felt like silk, so soft and fair"
Twas the splendour of their sweet kiss
That led to years of intense bliss
Gentle rainfall a lamppost glow
Enhanced the stellar, long ago
Although the rain then turned to hail,
They kissed until the moon was pale;
And he was found by mornings light,
alone, all drained of blood and white

My Chocolate Knight on a black stallion…
Riding into my desolate
Darken heart
Decay
Galloping toward my disillusions, heartaches…
Radiating a hope of
Brighter
Days
~~
I wait
Breathlessly
Hearing the pounding of his presence...
Desiring
The reality of his nearness
Sensing the soothing comfort of his essence
~~
Is it
The sound of happiness...
Echoing in this powerful pulsating beat
Is it
The expectation of love...
Beaconing me as still I await in silent retreat
~~
My Chocolate Knight on a black stallion...
Dinged and dented armor
Shining through
The darkness
Of a heart's
Despair
Illuminating the throbbing emptiness
As impatiently I wait
Finally exhaling
The stench of
Love-depleted
Air
~~
Is it an
Earthshaking...Comic blast
Life reshaping...explosive spill
Or just
A summoning rhythmic repeating
A calmness getting closer and closer still
~~
My Chocolate Knight on a black stallion
My happiness, my prince
~~My chance
Rescuing my imprisoned heart
As I await no longer
For romance
~~~
Thundering through disappointments storms
Illuminated-lightening revealed flashes
Of a future
"US"
Torrential rains washing away the grime
Healing...Cleansing disillusions'
Embittering
Crust
~~~
"Mount up with me my princess
Let's ride into our forever-more
I shall be your heart's defender
For it is you my heart long for"
~~~
Falling...
Holding tenaciously
And securely being held
Totally, absolutely complete
Two
Gallantly armored
Galloping in contentment
By two hearts' combined beat

Letting him go because he had found another,
She loved him completely and there was no other,
When he married a friend, her young heart was breaking,
But, she let him go, knowing she should not smother.
Even though the pure feelings were overtaking,
She didn’t let him see this hope that was earthshaking.
When time brought them together again, her heart yearned.
But, she didn’t see how this love was worth the making.
She still loved him, but wasn’t sure her love was returned.
He might be her answered prayer, for him she burned.
When he kissed her soft lips, passions flowed within her.
Silencing every doubt as feelings boiled and churned.
Like the blazing sun, his love she’d always prefer.
He was a blessing of love, all became a blur,
When she held him close, there was no reason for fear.
He held her whole heart, her soul would surely concur.
She was filled with feelings for this man, such a dear.
He brought her passions unimagined, it was clear,
Without this love that meant more to her than a dream,
Life would be filled with grief, her heart would shed a tear.
As time moved past, and they became such a great team,
She believed they were meant to be, sure of esteem.
All around them, those they knew did a double take.
Him who gave them always, is the awesome Supreme.
She understood that life might sometimes bring an ache,
When time reveals truth, real love will not forsake.
Inside, where love is born, aside from the heartbreak,
Despite doubts, hearts agree, love is not a mistake.
We love when we have the chance…to experience something earthshaking…
like sitting beside a waterfall…listening to the music she is making.
Each waterfall is made up of endless individual streams of water…
blending into one graceful symphony…
as they cascade over the edge…on their way to lakes or rivers or seas.
We love the harmony of a waterfall…each tiny tributary adding to the theme..
but when listening to a large waterfall…
it is impossible to isolate the music of each stream.
The other day we were lucky…when we noticed on a rock wall….
flowing by itself…the littlest waterfall.
We almost missed her at first…there on the rock face…all alone…
one tiny stream of water…cascading on her own.
But when we finally spotted her…and listened to the music she was making
we realized even the littlest waterfall could also be earthshaking.
We definitely heard a flute…emanating from the water flow
in the background…the rhythm of a drumbeat…and at times…a piccolo.
For a little while we listened to her music…to her melody ebb and flow…
then thanked her for her concert…when it was time to go.
We rolled our windows down…so we could listen to her play
until we drove around a bend…and her music faded away
We were quiet as we drove…still feeling enchanted and enthralled
for having been blessed to experience the music…
of the littlest waterfall..
Gentle as the wings of a soaring dove,
silently climbing, through the skies above,
gliding, graceful, among stars – precious love,
stirring wonders, earthshaking.
Laughing and dancing like rustling leaves,
reassuring the spirit who fears, who greaves,
coloring the moments with hope that believes,
there, weeping – a heart breaking.
Arising in the morning, a new joy, a new life,
His love inspires faith full of light, without strife,
assuring hearts there is a promise of the afterlife,
a beautiful so amazing, breathtaking.
Fresh dreams, new things come in the morning,
it’s a grace so alive, bringing hunger without warning,
speaking of life eternal – I’ll give you a forewarning,
Jesus love assures there is no mistaking.
Reflections of pink, and gold on heaven’s floor,
a hint of memories that came millenniums before,
and the radiance of God’s glory, eying from behind the shore,
is a new dawn, for our taking.
Warming thoughts rousing dreams, in prayers,
for the faith to always know His love repairs,
His light is a glimpse into a hope without tears,
promising forever is where I’ll be waking.
Shadows fall, hastening to color dawn in hues,
blushing rose, lavender and tender blues,
the peace He brings my soul will never confuse,
grateful for Him – yes, my soul is shaking.
You knew he was in when you heard the loud din,
his trademark for letting folks know,
he had arrived and his voice loudly cried,
to make sure that we knew it was Joe.
The whole bar was alert, with ears starting to hurt,
as he shouted 'hail fellows well met'
with backslapping, handshaking, his volume earthshaking,
as he roared his jovial outlet.
He'd come to watch racing, flat and steeplechasing,
It was easy money he cried,
the bookies are losers, so come on all you boozers,
bet these horses that I will provide.
You won't need a job if you lay down a few bob,
you'll be made for the rest of your life,
so follow big Joe and part with your dough,
you'll be a hero to your trouble and strife.
He'd go watch the telly and we'd laugh from the belly,
at the sounds that were coming from there.
There were groans, there were moans, in really loud tones,
as he shouted then started to swear.
His selections all failed, as the winner they trailed,
putting on a very poor show.
But he swore that next time he'd pick ones in their prime,
and his pockets would be bulging with dough.
He went out with a grin, and said, 'when I came in,
I said there was money for free,
And I knew I was right, there was plenty in sight,
Cos the bookies just took it from me.'
Dancing, laughing, praising
Psalms of leaves, breathtaking
Whispering joy – kindness
Poetry so stirring, earthshaking
It’s the time for creatures
To gather their nuts and leaves
Hope invites gentle blending
Heart and soul who loves, believes
Smiling like the moonlight
Who silences the stars, nocturnal
Blessings raining through life
Assuring the spirit of the eternal
It’s the miracle of a prayer
The feeling that cures each doubt
Who abides in those who trust
Have faith in God’s wisdom throughout
Falling through the sunshine
Dreams echoing beauty and peace
Creating sensations of creativity
Compassion that will only increase
It’s the autumn, vibrant and inspiring
Who rises through the hills, thrilling
Reassuring – blessing the entire world
With a joy that is alive, so fulfilling
Breathing light, like a fire from inside
Roaring beauty, graceful – uplifting
Reminds the spirit to believe, to know
It is God – Autumn’s author, gifting…
The heart, mind and spirit – with this
Wonders – rousing the sweetest bliss
