Monday scene

Made my way from the parking lot to my office.
Me: (walking)
Saw a stranger few hundred meters in front of me.
Me: (keep on walking).
Stranger passed by.
Stranger: (smile).
Stranger: Hi Cherry.
Me: (confused +amused+surprised = blur )

No. My name is not Cherry. I had totally no idea who is the stranger.

Happy Mother's Day

I said a Mother's Day prayer for you
to thank the Lord above
for blessing me with a lifetime
of your tenderhearted love.
I thanked God for the caring
you've shown me through the years,
for the closeness we've enjoyed
in time of laughter and of tears.
I know how often I took you for granted
when I was growing up.
I always assumed you'd be there
when I needed you...
and you always were.
But I never really thought about what that meant
till I got older and began to realize
how often your time and energy were devoted to me.

And so, I thank you from the heart
for all you've done for me
and I bless the Lord for giving me
the best mother there could be...

My Childhood

My childhood was fun,
tough and exciting.
My childhood was one
where there wasn’t much fighting.
This was my childhood.

My childhood was filled
with family and friends.
My childhood was filled
with love that tied up loose ends.
This was my childhood.

After A While

Untitled

I was walking along the beach
Savoring the powdery softness
Of the pure white sand
As it clung to my bare feet
I was so enthralled
By the gently lapping waves
As they quickly washed away
Each footprint I made
I sat and covered my feet
With the milky white sandy paste
Delighting in its cold freshness
And loving the feel
Of the late afternoon breeze
I stood up and walked again
Watching every footstep
Being hungrily licked up
By the slowly rolling waves
And I pondered in awe
At the wonder of it all...

  

Come walk with me.., take off your flip-flop, happiness is a summer breeze, sand between your toes, and your best friend by your side..

For You
