Land of Wonder
Creative Secondary School, Clio Chong, Poetry: Group 3
Saphire air burning,
With colours bright and bold.
Rainbow painted by the Mother Nature,
To add a bit of wonder to the dark, grey world..
The hungry wind howled,
In the unseen air.
Not a single person in sight,
Not even a piece of hair.
Golden grain was blown everywhere
From the furious South
When the unfortunate travelers past
It is bound to get in their mouth.
Mountain-like sand domes
With patterns of zigzag wire
They are smooth waves of ocean
They are red hot fire.
In the hostile desert,
The cactus and the cacti live.
Although not much living things,
Deadly scorpions and desert fox are active
A camel-drawn carriage appear,
Behind the crimson curtain was a girl.
Overlooking the horizon,
As stunning as a pearl.
Foreign princess
From afar.
Under the radiant moonlight,
Her eyes glisten like the nocturnal star.
Where is the final destination?
As if on cue,
The sure-footed camels went heavenward,
And the journey continues.
