Destiny

6/29/2017

Once I dwelled in bitterness
refusing myself fairness
I build strength and hope
through art at Toi Ora
coming out triumphant

Why bargain with fate
master your life
hold it in your hands
you are your own destiny

There are bents in your life
it can be swift sweet
it can be slow suffer
in yourself or when among crowds
prepare for these moments

Mystery of Ghosts and Angels

6/23/2017

Ghosts and Angels
travel in space
in between levels of heaven earth

Mystery of these spirits
equals nonsense
can we distinguish
spirits from humans
do they have desires
or they hid them
under clothing of coldness

Takapuna

6/23/2017

I

the tree in the backyard
where home was
burnt down under tongues of fire
no more shade

II

the script is written
but no one is interested
no film no play no nothing
so what
a job is done
a passion is satisfied
not giving up

III

sitting there in an old chair
at the Takapuna Beach
watching the water
the cliff juts into space

7, 8, 9

6/16/2017

an untrodden path he goes
seeking muse in traveller's dreams
worn out by sighs and quick steps
waking upon other scenes

as a traveller down the lovers' lane
no other lover feels the same
the worn out path step by many
sighs echo when love breaks apart

no traveller dares to take the challenge
once stepped into the worn out passage
difficult to depart in one piece
as being different is a burden

Have we faded in love

6/16/2017

You lace the border of your painting
I play the music inside my head
I no longer appreciate your work
Nor you look up to my creations

Have you ever been lonely
Have we faded in love

We don't look at each other direct
We won't talk when crossing each other
We dream different dreams in the same bed
You don't hold me anymore nor I

Have you ever been lonely
Have we faded in love

We are strangers in different shores now
We are in places of foggy clouds
We are no longer on the same page
You don't understand me nor I you

Have you ever been lonely
Have we faded in love

Mother

6/9/2017

Mother, your shining halo
casts light upon me
You watch on my welfare
Your kindness brings forgiveness
It's a timing choice we're
put together
And the sun rises
when I have you
You will never disappear in me
and the East won't take you away

myth

6/3/2017

sitting at an angle
spreading legs out diagonal
flowers bloom
ivy kills
a key too important
in answer to the question
what gesture is it
beholding the myth

Hawk, phantom

6/3/2017

Hawk in the sky
like a soaring metallic machine
shooting through dawn.

The pale smoky surrounding
with a hidden phantom
lurking chiming
within hearts of forsaken souls.

Author

I started late to become a writer, after I graduated from the University of Auckland at the age of 57. It all began when one of my articles was first published in Muse, a magazine in Hong Kong. I just finished my first novel Tree which is about Chinese immigrants here in New Zealand. Being bipolar it hasn't been easy but I'm proud to have broken the vicious cycle and begin to enjoy life. I'm glad to have survived to this age and be able to live a most fulfilling life.
