Remembering Evelyn Ang

T'was promised it'd a beautiful morning when I set out

The air was cool, the breeze light

I stretched, warmed up
I was ready, then
I ran, and ran
Yes, I ran
on
and on
pounding the road
smiling at my mateys
waving cheerily

love them

I kept running
ran
on
and on

Suddenly I smelled roses
then jasmines
honeysuckles
gardenias
mist around

kissing my feet
I ran
on
and on
towards the sun
glorious fun
I smiled

My destination?
no, just kept running
on
and on

I felt no pain

no ache
no tiredness
t'was wonderful
yellow frangipani
all around
So, I ran
on
and on
towards
my happiness
o joyousness
laughed too

I kept running
ran
on
and on

Gorgeous flames of the forest

lined my path

daphnes

hyacinths

dragonflies

butterflies

orioles

flew

besides me

then cempaka

extravaganza

their glory

Happy

I ran
on
and on, and on ........
