CY@CY Says Welcome to my dreamscape. Where a Lim is also a Ling.

Imagine a bowl of kolomee, Maybe you prefer kampua mee, Where the noodle represents proper English, Add in seasonings of Malay, Mandarin, Cantonese, Hokkien and Tamil to get Manglish.   Manglish is a Malaysian English-based creole, Linguists have studied it with much allure, It’s like an official declaration of Malaysian identity, The way we express ourselves with spontaneity.   The ...

Stairway to heaven, Led Zeppelin’s iconic anthem, Hailed as one of the greatest rock songs of all time, Showcasing the band at its prime, An epic at eight minutes long, The pinnacle of a hard rocking song, Crystallising the band’s essence, It is the One, the quintessence. Beginning in a slow acoustic fingerpicking tempo, In an arrangement never heard before, ...

Small and laid back, Conjuring images of the outback, Along the lower reaches of the mighty Rejang it sits, Capital of Meradong District it is.   Inhabitants predominantly Foochows, Industrious like hardworking cows, Binatang is its old name, Green tangerines bring it fame.   Vibrant and lively in the old days, The town deteriorated in many ways, Riverine life quietened, ...

Every morning when I awake, A prayer is all it takes, Miracles are born from faith, That’s an undeniable fact. Miracles grow out of difficulties, Life is full of adversities, About which I should not complain, And treat not with disdain. Miracles happen every day, Simple things like the sun’s ray, Birds flying in the air, Butterfies mating in pair. ...

  I can’t live without you, I have an all consuming love for you, Thinking of you makes me awake, And I think of you once I awake. You have amazing power, I succumb to your wonder, You have such a lovely scent, Stimulating my smelling sense. You are hot as hell, Casting your spell, You are strong and steamy, ...

By the light of the silvery moon, Girl you’ll be a woman soon. Crying in the rain, I can feel the pain. Here comes the rain again, How can I ease the pain? Can’t fight this feeling, Even when I am sleeping. Every time we say goodbye, I will survive. Head over heels, I like how it feels. Highway to ...

  Shadow always owes its birth to light, Without light shadow is snubbed outright, That’s why we should never fear shadows, Banish your fears out of the windows. Light gives of itself very freely, Light can be stark and can dance wildly, Whenever light shines shadows follow, Our fears of shadows become hollow. We have within us our special light, ...

The sky fills with foreboding dark clouds, Thunders rumbles threateningly loud, Winds howl and lash with great ferocity, The rain pours down without any mercy. Leaves sway and flap like hands clapping, Waves dance in swells, finally crashing, Trees are uprooted by an unseen hand, Fishing boats hurry back towards safe land. Though I watch things unfold nervously, My heart ...

The egrets are a dazzling sight, Statues of grace, stoic and snowy white, Impressive wingspans stretching so wide, When they spread their wings as they take flight. Wading slowly or standing stock-still, Foraging in marshes and mud flats, They strike with a jab of their long bill, It’s a joy watching them in their acts. Like ballerinas so full of ...

Streaming brightly through gaps in the clouds, The shafts of light leave me without doubts, Beautiful sun rays showing their might, Before the sun retires for the night.   Like furrows of a freshly ploughed field, These God rays are a wonder to view, Sunbeams shining from the dusky sky, Like ladder to heaven up so high.   Enamoured by ...
