Autumn in My World

(Thought-Random)



       F-   rom up those trees regal and majestic
                                      trees that tower and trees that touch
                                      lazily drifting with breeze when gentle
                                      flittingly swift when winds go quick.

                              A-   ll these leaves from up there to me
                                     they come in shades of orange and red
                                     in yellow and purple, magenta and blue
                                     these colors aflame make my eyes aglow.

    L- ike life I'd think that Fall ushers in
                                     changes, revisions, adjusting, evolving
   as when the leaves come green and fresh
                                     in time they fall to earth they crumble.

L- eaves leave the trees bleak and bare so true
                                     but later when after the ice is gone
   come back they do much lovelier in sight
   again full circle in my world full color.

Fall Twenty Thirteen

(Thought-Random)

had had fun back my country
good fun too down malaysia
now american fun am enjoying
life certainly spells exciting!

and as I chance look at my present
colors changing every moment
catching my eyes the deep blue sky
must I even wonder why?

do I ever think of tomorrow
that what it brings I do not know
advice I have from you, dear friend
seize the moments of my when!

Airport Postscript

(Thought-Random)

Dear God, have missed my flight to Frankfurt
Now am I stuck in Singapore
Now need an overnight stopover
Now in my aloneness I wonder
Now must this experience explore
Now what never happened before.

Dear God, instead of Frankfurt it's Narita
Now am I wrapped in helplessness
Now need rebooking plus the works
Now in an effort to quench my fears
Now must I strive hold quiescent
Now what should not turn turbulent.

                                             Dear God, the airlines in my dire distress
                                           Flies somehow to me in total effort
                                             Lavish upon me priority status
                                           Provides me an escort sweet and caring who
                                           Leads me front of queues for service to
                                           Ease my transit JFK through LAX.

            Dear God, now must I thank you -
              For that bit of thrill and intoxication
              For that fraction of a thunderbolt
              To shake my life into sensibility, and
              For the time and space out of comfort zone
          For new friends and acquaintances.

Yes, dear God, with Your mysterious ways
You truly are amazing!
