john tiong chunghoo Poems

rain
under the streetlamp
on the road
a million ballet dancers
...

a death blow is a life blow to many
whose world is a caged dream
a bird crying to do what other birds do
eating, mating, flying to the ends of the world
...

jasmine sends
its mindblowing
fragrance, allure
before it drops
...

at the clothesline
is hung the fun
of the whole family
...

i am earth
i see with
lenses in
the men
...

those wishing to learn writing good haiku should
start first by writing spooky haikus;

midnight
...

when poetry comes
a full moon pulls
at the sea
...

one night on the beach
i chanced upon a bottle
with a little note bearing words so chilly
i thought it should be left
...

creepers
in darkness
creep to light
salvation
...

sun is dad
spreads love and cheer
with each of his rays
children's laughter everywhere
...
