Dr Peter Lim May 27
I'd rather be nothing
than to behave or pretend
as a person of some standing
Dr Peter Lim May 27
A small voice is mine
but I'll not bow out-
a democracy life is
I'll speak bold and loud

in protest or defiance
however  large the crowd-
a single heart I might touch
and be silently proud.
Dr Peter Lim May 27
Writing to me
is quite often sacred
it's like a prayer
being faithfully said
Dr Peter Lim May 27
It's better
to chat
than to
blame or hate
Dr Peter Lim May 27
Doubt is my strength
my shield and the window
of my understanding:
the light that I follow

to live the creative life-
others in their certainty pour
their wisdom all oven
but I'll not enter their inviting door

lest I'd be cast in their mould
and be my intrinsic self no more
Dr Peter Lim May 27
Don't say
' the future'
  better:
'  tomorrow'
Dr Peter Lim May 27
Prayer has no set schedule
it's in every thought or deed
at any spot or time
exercised by you
