Ivy Chua (October 7, 1948 - May 17, 2002)
in the loving memory of my beloved mother
Spin
By: Wendy Loh
page after page
verse after verse
writes the events of tomorrow
from the memories of a broken telescope
spins the turnstile of life
far away cries a little girl
who lost her favorite toy
in a distance views a warrior
a lover and a mother
tide rises and the sea aged
trees wither in the cold
flowers blossomed
warm air fills the room;
smoke smolders the name of man
when earth engulfed her body
in her child she lives
in those who loves her, she remains
reflections in the mirror
episodes of the familiar
beauty is an evidence of existence
time fades what the eyes see
never what the heart feels.
all that end also begin
the turnstile of life continue to spin.
