Shimmering shores glistening,a small island beckons Illustrious industries buzzing,a busy colony of activities Newly born, a hidden pearl gaming to be explored Graciously giving, peace of mind offered cozily Astonishing success achieved, incredibly more so under her tiny frame Passionate pride runs deep,striving to better herself Owning little but much, she bravely ventures forward Romancing fiery desire to be the best,dazzling sparks explode Ever ready to overcome, to lead and to excel |

What a wonderful image of success I found in this one. If life gives you the success you have achieved in this then you will go far. Loved it. |

Well written. Like the success imagery as well. dh A life isn't significant except for its impact on other lives. |

kaile, wow what an image. I had to pinch myself to remind me that it was only poem. and I was ready for some site seeing and all. A rock pile ceases to be a rock pile the moment a single man contemplates it, bearing within him the image of a cathedral. Antoine de Saint-Exupéry |

kaile, Sound like a challenging place to live, and a wonderful place to experience! Perhaps, someday I'll visit this wonderful place, if I need a guide can you direct me to one as proud as yourself? Your poem was GREAT! Dennis :^) Moonbeams radiate When the veiling cloud has past Playful shadows dance Dennis L. White :^) |

Oh wow!! This is so cool!! You should let ALL other Singaporeans read it and let them feel proud of our homeland. Home is still the very best, you never know it until you try to leave it.  |
