Poems - American Standard

Haven't been updating the blog and was busy filling the forms of UBS, watching modern dance "The Star of Bethlehem", listenting to seminar, etc. Heard this avant-garde poet from a Mandarin musical by Singapore's local songwriting sensation Dr. Liang Wern Fook & acclaimed Hong Kong play writer Raymond To - If there're seasons.

e.e.cummings - the 2nd most popular poet in America.

Love is thicker than Forget

love is Thicker than forget
more Thinner than recall
more Seldom than a wave is wet
more Frequent than to fail

it is most Mad and Moonly
and less it shall unbe
than all the sea which only
is Deeper than the sea

love is less Always than to win
less Never than alive
less Bigger than the least begin
less Littler than forgive

it is most Sane and Sunly
and more it cannot diet
han all the sky which only
is Higher than the sky

Robert Frost - the most popular poet in America:

Devotion

The heart can think of no devotion
Greater than being shore to the ocean--
Holding the curve of one position,
Counting an endless repetition.
