Lovely Happenings

Morning newsprint Wet soaking rain; Bleak news today ~~~~~~~~~ Play school kids Stare as I pass; Curious eyes follow ~~~~~~~~~ New age cakery here Exquisite creations; Addictive morsels ~~~~~~~~~ Beggar in rags Face soiled and weary; Pleads for a meal ~~~~~~~~~ Our society is well-fed Yet the poor abound; Poverty of all sorts ~~~~~~~~~ Molasses and coconut cream Desserts that enchant; Another round please ~~~~~~~~~ Evening rain pours Run for cover; Temporary refuge ~~~~~~~~~ Worst case scenario Business venture fails; Try again later ~~~~~~~~~ Cheers! One for the road; Beery ways steer ~~~~~~~~~ Leon Enriquez 11 February 2015 Singapore
