The Feline Duo

The Feline Duo
~Ruth Tan

We’re the Fearsome
Feline Duo
You’d better know

Don't steal our slumber
And cut that silly grin
Go away
And return us peace
We must
Curl up tight to sleep
Cos' we’d be out tonight
For a darned good chase
In the true spirit
Of the big wild cats

We’re the Fearsome
Feline Duo
You’d better know

Exuberance

Exuberance
~Ruth Tan

Look, hundreds of Koi,
Competing hard for some food.
What Exuberance!

O Mighty Tree

O Mighty Tree
~Ruth Tan

O Mighty Tree
Blessed with a spirit so free

Standing in Grace
Rooted on constant Truth

Majestic stature in glowing hue
Set against the azure blue

See his Wisdom reigns
Glory crowning his passing years

Yields the sweetest fruit
That melts even the hardest brute

Cradles intricate nests
And beckons his feathered friends

Loving hands stretch to give
In Abunbdance may we live

Tower of Refuge
A true Friend indeed

A lullaby under the tranquil moonlight
A roar in the darkest stormy night

Songs of the seasons
He serenades them all

Did you hear the rustling wind folk
God just spoke

The Climb

The Climb
~ Ruth Tan

up three strides
down two strides
how slow is the climb

knees weakening
gotta keep going
and finish the climb

heart racing
breath shortening
can’t stop the climb

how long can I hold
I donno
just have to make the climb

never will I bend
so near is the end
ain't giving up the climb

Hungry Bunnies

Hungry Bunnies
~Ruth Tan

Ooo Something to eat?
Hippity Hoppity Hop
Bunnies take their happiest hop

Yea Something to eat!
Hippity Hoppity Stop
Bunnies make their busiest stop

Tumbling Descend

Tumbling Descend
~ Ruth Tan

Turning, spinning
    Twirling, spiralling
        Tumble, swish
            Down we go!

The Song of Everyday

The Song of Everyday
~Ruth Tan

The rhythm of every yesterday.
Toil has ended.
Sweat has dried.
I’m going home.

The tune of every tomorrow.
Toil will begin.
Sweat will pour.
I’m going again.
