...Ripples of Life.....

Whatever we do in our lives, good or bad, will affect somebody, like ripples on the water- they expand, they touch something, before they slowly vanish... Ripples come in many ways, from love and spite, hope and despair and joy and pain; shaping who we are, exchanging what we lose for what we gain... Sometimes the ripples which somebody has created in your life continue on, long after the person has gone, not bounded by the twilight, but cherished, kept safe, hidden in the heart...

Jernih air di telaga, belum tentu penghilang dahaga
Keruh air di muara, belum tentu banyak racunnya

Kita Hanya Kiambang Kerdil

Kita hanya kiambang kerdil
sekecil dan selembut cendawan
akar tidak menjejak ke kerikil
pucuk tidak menjulang ke awan

Kita hanya kiambang kerdil
begitu mudah terpisah
oleh belahan biduk-biduk kecil
apa lagi ombak yang menerjah

Kita hanya kiambang kerdil
beradu suratan di kolam sendiri
semakin hari semakin terpencil
bila kita tidak bertaut kembali
