Ode To Singapore
Oh Singapore, the Lion City, how you roar A marvel of modernity, a city to adore Your skyline soars high into the heavens A testament to the ambition of your citizens And there, the Merlion stands proud and tall Half lion, half fish, a symbol of your soul A creature of myth, that captures the heart A beacon of hope, that sets...

Sleep, Please
It’s both red and crimson Same you say? But different. It looks smaller than anything else you’ve prescribed but in the end it’s all just another cocktail - a cocktail of substances trying to keep me alive or sane or both. Sane Lack of sleep is woeful as a life of...

Singapore Suffering
Singapore Summit, as high as the sky, though, there hangs the Peace Prize pie, dangling plumb, dangling awry, drives the dolt's eyelids to flap, eyeballs to fly; drags the dolt's drool till dry. That's why the dolt recently seems spry, as if each Nobel panelist became his guy. Dog with two tails in, mouse with tail cut out, fie! That pie...

The Singapore Math
How fascinating and striking. How deep and burrowing. How inspiring and imaginative. How insightful and thoughtful. How constructive and moulding. How explanatory and crytal clear. How indulging and exploring. How communicative and relating. How unique and standard. How verbal and interactive. The intellectual developmental approach for every being. Beings who best integrate in the world. How great the Singapore Math is....

Singapore In the Rain
Tropical rain pouring down Giving us that pitter pat sound Still warm and humid weather God has put for us together City growing reclaimed from the sea Skyscrapers reaching to the sky you will see Green gardens tendered well Singapore a garden city nice to dwell. © Paul Warren Poetry...

(In celebration of Singapore's National Day 2017, August 9th) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Time has a way to tell a tale, Each act moves play through storm and gale. So year by year we come to know, A country dear with grace that shows. Just for a while let frolic play, See happy smiles caress this day. In bold fashion a dazzle grips, Poise crafts vision in glitzy...

Once upon a rhyme Influence set the chimes Attend to reasons Beyond mere season Intent brought firm acts Craft of steady tact Days and months and years Work outlived most fears Here upon these shores New rites now pile more Laugh with bold struggle Rumble and tumble Odd one out of place Mad mad rush we race Influence flavours change Fit the dance most strange Glimpse the city streets Sync with change...

My Hazed Singapore
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...

Start with fond feel to find your way, Indulge your heart that knows the truth; Note what you will the time of day, Glimpse love's sure art with mystic proof; Abide with grace the touch that heals, Peace floods and fills the ample spheres; Observe the space where time retreats, Reach and distill true faith that cheers; Exult in light that forms all...

Start with firm heart where mind sees truth, Intent sets free the best you can; Note how to start to work sure proof, Grow then wisely with working plans; Align true health with steadfast poise, Plant and sow well the seeds that grow; Opt to earn wealth with steady choice, Reap more that sells what finesse shows; Express the means to gather more. Focus...
