Short Keep Mum Poems

King of Kings can surely 
   Kill the soul and body.
     Kingdom of God is nigh,
       Kiss the Son lest you die.
Knowing that His loving 
   Kindness calls you today,
      Keep mum, can I? No way.

Do not lowly hum or keep mum,
When asked “where do babies come from?”
Tell them, Birds are like men,
Bees are like women,
explain to them well so they don’t ask again” how cum?”

Dress that you pick that day
Decides if you catch prize
Decline or just give in
Drink with them or just pass
Divulge all or keep mum
Drive,sail,walk or swim may
Determine if you’ll live

I'm waiting for a day that may never come
Because of hatred I must escape from
I'm filled with anger I must overcome
My heart is so numb
But there is to much left to say to keep mum
And no time left to play dumb
I will never succumb
No matter what the outcome

There is an air of prancing fun
Elusive but lightly brewing
My candid heart feels her presence
Dare I warn the others?
Or simply watch the show

I elect to keep mum
People stop arguing.
Husbands embrace their wives.
Toddlers with tears begin to smile.
The angels are here
Ancestral drama alleviated and dissipated...

Will you be my love?
Together we`ll build a nest of dove.
We`ll have couple of kids
And bring up them all the days and nights.

I will be yours you will be mine 
We will wander together and dine.
From hills to valleys and bines to fines.
We`ll cross black hole and the forbidden lines.

Oh! My lady, silently come.
 Let surrounding be deaf and dumb.
Stand frontward and hold your tongue.
Let the critic keep mum....

My Hazed Singapore!
My once gleaming and buzzing city 
Now forlorn and glum
Relentless blaze and we keep mum
Hazy, crazy, why can’t I see 
The silent intruder reminds me 
How fragile life and existence can be
Gone the sunshine that sparrows once chirped 
The smiles of flowers and trees usurped 
Young and old huddling in on tasks 
Strong and robust scurrying off in masks 
Can we not check their insidious greed?
Let the long arms of the law act indeed!...

A rattling train, a flying fist,
A lonely cheek waiting to be kissed,
A solemn promise, a sacred vow,
Thinking what have I done now?
Life can be good - for some,
others just keep mum,
Angry words, violent hands and feet,
makes life hard and 
needs to be beat.
But that's easy for others to say,
They don't see it day after day,
Your spirits low, hides away,
Brick wall built to keep them at bay,
Love and care your middle name,
A prince will come to wake them again....
