1. Behold
Behold the radiant sun,
Of yellow burning bright;
That smiles upon the earth,
With life and joy as gifts.
Behold the mighty sky,
Of blue and white and brilliance;
Vast and fair and high,
That holds all men in awe.
Behold the rolling fields,
Of green and white and yellow;
Beasts large and small it cradles,
That roam so free and wild.
Behold the roving seas,
Of deep enchanting hue;
Always in constant motion,
Of mystery and intrigue.
O! What a wonderful realm it is,
That inspires us mortal men.
2. Sydney Opera House
Looking above the sky was brown;
Back down the water shone with light.
A beautiful sunset evening it was,
When across the water my eyes had gazed.
There a beautiful structure I beheld,
Golden with light and ever so splendid.
Cheerful little lights adorned its feet,
Caught by the water and dazzling the eye.
A romantic show the lights had played;
My gaze lingered on Australia?s jewel.
Crowned by the arc of Harbour Bridge,
Majesty flows from the Opera House.
Picture-perfect moments they were,
Always to be captured, loved and admired.
3. In Gladden Fields of Green
In gladden fields of green I walk,
On a splendid summer afternoon.
Flowers white and yellow adorn the fields,
Dancing and smiling cheerf?lly in glee.
A gentle breeze blows about,
The fresh sweet wind lifts my hair.
Cooling and relaxing indeed,
My spirits lifted in response.
A peaceful pond I come to,
With fishes big and small darting.
The wind blows shallow valleys and ridges,
Gleaming and shimmering in the sun.
In the water I see the sky,
Looking up its hue intensifies.
White shining amid rich blue,
The clouds intensified by golden beams.
Wind, water, sun, cloud and fields;
Paradise on Earth, I couldn?t ask for more.
4. Morning Sky
Morning graces
The waking Earth,
Rays of magnificence
Sweep the firmament.
Clear sky brightens
With morning bliss,
Softly sparkling,
So blue, so blue.
5. Ever Since
Ever since
I caught a glimpse,
Of her bright,
Big shiny eyes,
She has
Always had
Me mesmerised.
A moment in time
Immortalised;
I looked over,
Our gazes connected,
Only a moment,
But sufficient.
Captivated,
I felt queer
As never before
It was rather
A lengthier moment
To recover.
Now every time
My eyes
Befall
Her locks,
Or her fair face,
She always
Never fails
To mesmerise.
6. She
She is beautiful,
An image of radiance,
Like the sun.
Her voice is sweet and mellow,
With a tone so soft,
Like the fluffy clouds.
She glows,
Shy at times, yet confident
Like the moon.
Her eyes twinkle,
Little points of light,
Like the stars.
She, oh she...
Will she watch the sunrise and sunset with me?
7. She So Sweet
Candy, chocolate, ah, so sweet.
Lemon, lime, aiyee, such sour-ness!
Cheese, chips, hrmmz, salty somewhat,
Herbs, haargh, no, bitter, bitter!
Of all the flavours,
Sweet is the best.
It is but humble,
A humble sensation.
But when it radiates,
It works magic,
Making you feel
So good inside.
But none is sweeter
Than she is.
She makes me feel
On top of the world.
Oh she so sweet,
Won't you smile
A magic smile for me,
Sweet sweet darling?
This is dedicated to my friend Trin:
To My Angel
I've met an angel
When it was dark,
She shone her light.
She pulled me out
From deserts and wastelands.
In a wretched world,
I built a wall.
She tore it down
And gave me strength.
In my journey,
There were times
I was lost,
But she led the way.
There too were times,
When I fell hard.
She picked me up,
And I could go on.
All this she did
With a smile,
Never expecting
Anything in return.
Through the years,
And in the passage of time,
Nobody understood,
But she did.
Dear angel,
I want to hold on to you,
And be there
For you.
