Koy found himself sitting
On a hill overlooking the sea,
On the misty grass,
Under the majestic tree,
With the wind fiercely blowing.
His body cold and shivering.
But he didn't mind.
He got up and cried,
"I'm ignoring you
not because I don't feel you,
rather because I do.
Blow and I shiver."
He bowed and sat back.
Shimmering is the sea he's watching.
Gleaming is his future.
It seems that I'm trying to begin every post with an ugly quick free verse, lately. Ugly as they may be, but I like how they can summarize my thoughts in as few words as possible.
In other news...
I'm halfway through the book, "The Prophet" by Kahlil Gibran. It contains his brilliant thoughts on love, marriage, children, joy and sorrow, among others.
I've seen "Il Mare" yesterday afternoon. I was very tired and sleepy, though, that I think I dozed off a number of times. Now I can't piece the story together. I better watch it again fully awake. This is the Korean movie where the American movie "The Lakehouse" is based on.
Whoa! For four straight years now, Roger Federer of Switzerland is the Wimbledon champ. And he's only 24. The king of clay, Rafael Nadal, gave it his best shot but Federer is simply the king of grass.
I watched the finals while I was in the boat travelling to cebu and I was frustrated that Nadal squandered his chance to claim the second set, he broke the serve of Federer on the first game..the match would have reached 5 sets and who knows it would have been Nadal winning the match! bummer
ReplyDeleteHaha... So you're a Nadal fan. Maybe next year. Federer is still the king of grass.
