LORD, wait for me

Take me to YOUR world and beyond

Show me the things that delights YOU

The pretense of the occurrence within

And all the things that YOU abhor

Lead me to walk through YOUR footprints

Even when the waves are trying to rub it out

Lighten up the dark road that I traverse

Even when the wind is blowing out the light

Guide me when I feel the perplexity

In choosing the right path to take

When at the crossroad that seems so complex

And when I’m jolting on a bumpy road

Where do I start to begin the journey?

To reach the place that YOU prepared for everybody

Though I walk unhurriedly towards YOU

Yet, YOU patiently are waiting for me

Please do not depart from me, oh LORD

Until I recognize the way leading to YOU

Help me to muster enough strength

To speed up my motion before YOU close the gate

Backgammon

Let’s play the game of backgammon

A board game that’s so common

Show me some tricks

While moving the white bricks

Let us roll the dice

To determine our prize

To move six notches up

Or borne off and have a gap

Think of the backgammon game

It’s where our life is akin

Bricks maybe dislodged for awhile

And disjoined from the pile

Sometimes you feel like losing

For your bricks are staling

But it’s not a perpetual situation

Soon your bricks will reach its' home

To win in the backgammon game

Watch your opponent’s way of playing

When your bricks are trailing, do not waver

For you may end up the winner

Colors in the Dark

What is it that a blind man sees

that I do not see

or sensed that I do not sense.

When the world is perturb

and everyone is confused

the blind man is undisturbed.

What is it that he could grasp

but I can not accept

life’s reality that we all face.

The doctrine of life trying to ignore

cowering from the harsh conformity of facts

not the blind man’s concern at all.

What is it in his heart

that I do not possess

the courage to journey in the dark.

Braving the world of darkness

relying on a piece of stick

and there’s a feeling of contentment.

I see the color blue, brown and green

he glimpse only at the color black

his world is more colorful than what I have.
