1.

Once upon a time...

Stared into the distant skyline,

And wondered how the other side was like

Thoughts and imaginations lifted me high

That hopes elevated but the oldys sigh

That square vision of one only path,

Lined with candified trees, remain no more

For the cruelty of growth had punched a dent into my innocent soul

The boy-boy's wish for the world of fantasy

Where simplicity held hand in hand a  beautiful life

But *poof* it burst as the dream bubble-fied. 

Craving for love, and loathing the schemes

Me-You-He-and She became terms of mere words

Reached my hand out to touch the sky

An every attempt puffed with cresent smiles

I hope I wish I crave I want

The bliss the rainbow to never faint

But as I woke up and grasped it tight

I opened my palm and see you poofed*

Gosh I thought the playful you

Hidden into my palm I once sought you

But now I know the hurting truth

That thought, that bliss, that smiles of yours

Have left me for good and left me for long

Diversified paths gave me the poke

That urged me forward and never stop

I now wished I could turn back,

But the ends chased up and disappeared

Opps, I tripped and cried and drowned

Help me my Heavenly Lord

For You promised to lead me out

Now I understand why the oldys sighed

As the loss was big Big BIG!

Child's soul, wild thoughts, and that genuine smile,

Searched my stupid pocket to find a useless ticket.

Now I'm the one to sigh

To be stab, and punched, and kicked, and slapped

Gosh, heal this lost world

And help them to retrieve the ability to DREAM

To demute the radio that plays the Bunny tune

To make them wish upon that falling stars

To child-ified their minds to watch the Wonka show!

The Oompa men will walk with me

To cast that magical stroke to candify those trees again

Then I will reach out my hand to try again

A grasp I clenched and drew back fast

For fear of losing what I've lost

And I slowly undo my stubborn fingers

To peep the fruit of that resurrection

And a glow dazzled my eyes

As an angel rose before me

And did the glamorous dance

Now I know my hopes are alive

As I have learnt the wonderful thing

To place everything in His hands

And be touched in every single way

God so love the world that He gave His only Son

So that those who believed in Him would not perish and have eternal life

In Jesus name I pray Amen

So to re-live the once upon a time

And chase the happily ever after.

Small versus big

I witnessed the star drop into the ocean

I was afraid it might drown

I was afraid the coldness of the water will put off the weak-ified flame

Faded star

Childhood times, memory moments, children's dreams

I wished upon the stars 

I glared at the moon

A fallen star, a wishing star

The comet tail 

Left a lengthy trail

Whoosh, it dashed, across that many lightyears

And poof it splashed as the ripples formed

Blank my pupil wide-ified

Time paused, movemet froze

Looked back into the sky and saw an empty slot

The barren sky and the quiet wind

The lonesome that followed

A dashed star

And a smashed dream..

Drowned life

Belief you are strong and you are really strong

Passion of that life, moving on with love

The splash from the fallen star

Drenched the lovely passion

The spirit became dampened

and the hope became faint

Oh my! Stop-ify this! Optimism is a christian trait

I do what I preach

But that was only a self deceive

Shoo-ifiy stupid pessi

For pocket only contain nice things

Begone, sorrow, begone tears

I anticipate the next genuine smile

That would smiley-fy the yellow face

Flickered flame

Fire of love

Fire of dream

Fire of passion 

which pushed us on

Fire of the star carried it pass the million miles

Nature's way, beautiful way

Water kills the fire

The splash killed my flame

Panic-fied me got worried

I took the phone and dialed 995

Doctor doctor please save it

My flame is my wonderful friend

Shake head, sorry I've done my best

Too bad, too sad, it's pronounced dead

Embittered me lost the smile

The smile which so belonged to me, once

But it was not the end

God came, God spoke, and God healed me

Flame had joined Him in the heaven

Rejoice! Flame had gone to a better place

Optimism is indeed a christian trait

Finally the smile returned

A faint heat begun to rise

Sought within and found a small flame

The smile I craved, the smile I longed

Re-ignited the flame I once thought was gone

Thank you Father, thank you Lord

Flame of true love never fails

I'm willing to cling on

With all my might

Someday sometime somewhere somehow

Spontaneous combustion will keep me warm

Weird it may have seemed. 

Sun shine; star blink, moon smile.

Riding on Jimmy's rocket to pay a dear visit to Leggy's home in Mars. 

Day to day; hour to hour, that desire bulge, but never really explode.

Spin the wheel on the faulty phone to make a million-dollars dial to ring her up.

Leggy! I know you are so gonna agree with me. 

As dreams bubblify and poof! Doesn't it hurt to stare even for a second longer?

Scour through the closet under the table, and found a long-lost sweater.

Thoughts came knocking on the shell above my neck

"Pardon me,: it pleaded, "for I'm not smart enough to figure what this mean."

God reigns; God rules; God will speak.

Yet 18 years had flited by, and I have heard nothing.

The wise said God speaks to the heart; not the ear.

So I took out the stethoscope and listen again.

"Thump, thump, thump, it pounded."

My eyes begun to tear-ify, as I finally understand His words.

Who puts the stars in the sky, and know them by name?

Who tells the lightning bolt where it should go?

Who gave us the heartbeats that supported a zillion lives?

Who created us and know us by faith?

For He is the one great God, 

He speaks all the time,

through any means, through anyone, through anything, through any happenings

Signs you call it; omens it warns

I told you my hearings only to be deny-ify

"Foolish kid. Stupid boy. By chance things happened, perhaps even you"

It punched me hard, but not enough to dent the fort around my mind

No foolish, no stupid, but a wonder lot!

No thing comes by chance, neither do they come by luck

Things happened because He allows them to

and that's in His one big plan, 

so that everyone will be wake-ify and wise-ify

to follow Him to the lift-ified world.
