Sacred Rock

This is my rock
and here I run
to steal the secret of the sun.
It is an island amidst
a sea of trouble
green trees rumble and tremble
the ocean is firey waves
a flickering flame
a guide in the mist.
The gravity pushes
the asteroids toward earth
This is the place I meet the evening
face to face.

~ Group poem


In My Hand I hold...

The power to do anything,
the hope which builds my confidence,
the happiness which clears rainy days,
the enthusiasm which never dampens the spirit
the spirit to do my best.
The future I choose for myself.

~ Composed by Joel


In My Hand I hold...

In my hand I hold a bird
a little feathery bird.
He feels so light
so small and delicate,
his round small beady eyes
he smells of hay and grass,
he chirps happily in my hand,
he feels so soft and fluffy.
I do not wish to taste him
for I will not like that
and neither will he.

~ Composed by Jo


Mandy

There is naught that there is I give to thee
for your ways are not mine.
All the values of the human world mean naught to you.
Our foods are not yours.
what would a pizza mean to you?
A dress?
Perhaps even the whispers of music
the gentle voice of a harp means naught to thee,
perhaps even my colours are not yours.
Do you know the blueness of the skies?
The blueness of the sea?
Have you ever seen the sea?
I do not know
I am not you.

There is naught we share but one
The glowing ember of our friendship
we both have seen and felt
it shall never die.
My place is here with you.

~ Composed by Sharon Hung


God

God came out of the blue
He gives me the skies to enjoy
For the birds to inhabit
He gives me the beauty of music
From the Old Times, like Bach’s Chorales
Or Beethoven’s Symphonies
I hold onto.
He gives me the existence of
Italian pasta mixed with tomato sauce.
He gives a bed in which to rest
He gives me a unique skin, my personality,
He is mysterious,
And I’d like to meet Him
One day, to know Him,
But after I’ve enjoyed all the
Special things God gives to
Me.

~ Composed by Tiffany Chen
