May 12 Nostalgia

Dr Peter Lim

I'm no pearl
only a pebble
hidden under
the sand of time
unknown
to be discovered
by none-
yet I don't complain
or moan-
what I am
happily I accept
being just alone
a tiny stone-

the rose
has my pity
it blows
and loses
its beauty
when the sun
loses its glow
and admirers
are gone

a pebble I am
free to the bone
my life
as in
a perfect cone
abiding
consistent
unchanging
with nothing
to atone.

Cornered

When patterns repeat, year after year,
And threaten you at your most pivotal hour.
It feels like a checkmate.

Cherry Blossom

Petals in the breeze,
swirling around trees,
cherry blossom dance.

Within Me

Within Me

Looking around,
hoping to find
the answer.

A daffodil’s rhythm,
with the wind,
bathed in sunlight,
until it blew away.

I seek the Almighty,
only to realize,
the answer is within me.

My pal,
the answers are within you

Meant to Stay

Meant to Stay

What’s meant stays,
quiet and sure.

True love waits,
even when we turn away.

What isn’t ours
slips,
like water,
gone before we know it.

....sun will rise tomorrow

Hiding Stars

The wind was howling,
the moon was glowing,
and me?

Trying to glimpse
the stars,
hiding from me.

trying to reach for something just beyond me.

Moonlight on River

Calm night,
serene beauty,
fireflies dance,
the wind caresses the lily.

A ray of moonlight,
kisses a drop of river,
it glows,
summon the fairies.

River water shining under the moonlight....

Fire and Moth

Fire and Moth

Your fire so bright,
it takes me in.
Your warmth so tender,
it burns me within.

Heard many warnings,
still I fall.
And I’d fall again,
no regrets.

For this is where I belong.

what the 'moth' said to the 'fire flames' when it asked not to fall.

Forest of Life

Forest of Life

In the tranquil woods,
I wander,
each tree a thought,
each breeze a lesson.

Remind me,
in every pathway,
I am part of it all,
in this art,
called life.

"Everything happens for a reason, good or bad."
And after watching (a lotttt of times) and analyzing Avengers: Endgame, I believe that they are very right, lol.
