Breathe

just breathe
no reason
some mistake
no turning back, just go
don’t be glued to what we do
life’s full of ups and downs
just breathe
finding peace
remain as one piece
it’s inside us
key is being free
no pressure
normal to err

Quadrille #18 – Cloud

Love is being on cloud nine
Butterflies and bees in sunshine
You were gone and my world fell apart
My heart was shattered on your depart
From cotton clouds, days are cloudy
From waiting, I become angry
I deserve better
You’re not worth it

Shadow – Quadrille #17

Love soars from earth to infinity
For love of love, or heart’s solitude
Who cries for shadows and cannot tell
Begrudge I come with a plea
Never a sunny day for feud
Tried to stifle the thoughts and quell
I sing in my heart

Opening to the Muse–dVerse Quadrille #16

With open arms, I’ll fly with you
My one big surprise, my rock
My world used to be beige
Now, the colours of a rainbow
My sun, my moon, my stars
The last piece of my puzzle
Yang of my yin
We’ll fly together

I am who I am, but tomorrow, who knows?

Ladylee’s my name
Manila used to be my home
Married to Him Indoors
30 years this year
Mum to HRH the son
Now married to his beautiful K
I’m happy with my life
Swimming, cycling, travelling
Reading, blogging, taking photos
Life is wonderful indeed!

Journey – dVerse

5-4-3-2-1 !!!! Happy 5th anniversary D’verse!

A red phantom bus
Driving on a crooked road
Definitely red even in blackness
A double decker one with code
Where will it go? I have to find out
I put my thumb up, it stops
I’m on a real journey
A mysterious one

Quadrille #12 – One Rose

red roses
full bloom
one way to say he’s sorry
she looks at them and cries
she’s hurt
says goodbye
too late

he returns
white rose
another chance is all he’s asking
she looks at the white rose
at him
she smiles
they kiss

Spill Me Your Love

Spill me your heart
Can’t take it when we’re apart
Spill me your soul
You came and my heart stole
Spill me your compassion
I’m all yours with affection
Spill me your emotion
You woke my whole being with passion
Spill me your love

Quadrille – 9 – Green

When cold winter decides to leave
Spring comes forth to keep us warm
New leaves and blooms start to pop
We have to plant and harvest crop
New thread to spin, new cloth to weave
From trees, shrubberies and bushes
Carry on, don’t stop

Quadrille – 7 – “twist”

stories we tell
words we used
could be misquoted
and twisted
could be blown-up in
a quite irresponsible manner
like the Chinese whispers game
children used to play
one will whisper a sentence
to another and will end up
totally different
some twisted meaning
