Welcome

I am a controversial man. Look upon my words with care. View me in a way that is just and fair. And that, for that, I might call you friend.

Poems in Shanghai

Yes I'm back :D Suzhou was great, but here are some poems I created in China.

"Cry"

The hotels rises
Into the Sky,
Couples kiss
Under the moon up high.
The bus drives
Amongst rain or high.
I sigh
With my tear-stained eyes.

Eugene Koh

"A cup of coffee in the cold"

A cup of coffee in the cold,
A trip to Shanghai for cappuccino
A puppy love going so slow
Heaven and Earth, who knows?

Eugene Koh

"Watermelon or Egg?"

Choose: Watermelon or Egg?
Are you going to leave it to providence or fate?
Do you love with your heart or your head?
Will you live a life of hate?

Eugene Koh

"Shanghai Night"
Dedicated to the tour guide

Weaving in, weaving out of roads,
The more I see, the more I miss home,
I look around, hoping to see snow,
But I am content, with the Bund aglow.

"Sha Ya Ne"
To 徐姐姐

She greeted with a welcoming smile,
A local meeting with an alien race,
She waited when we said "Wait a while"
For to us it was an unusual place.

At times she would joke, others she would laugh,
Then she would frown, and reprimand.
She was the second mother, reined us in when we ran,
And at other times she smiled, spoke and chat.

On the day we went, she was still the same,
She rushed off before our plane went,
But one thing I'm sure, one thing I will say,
"Xu Jie Jie, Sha Ya Ne!"

Eugene Koh
