This Love

Learning, Poetic
This love is a red leaf
Early ready to fall
When others are firm.
This love is a happy snail
Silently slowly to reside
When deer are swift.

This love is what nature says
To leaf to fall,
To snail to reside
In a gorgeous
Fall.

I saw a red leaf among the green then a snail slowly came to my sight — what a beautiful day to see my love summarised in a frame; thank you!

False Alarm

Learning, Poetic
You rang loudly in my ears.
I ran following you.
I was safe in pyjamas.
You blinked an eye then went away.

You are always alarming me
And I start to distrust you.

Dear,
False alarm.

another false alarm this morning at around 7:20

this time many had decent clothes as many guests were ready to go out early

I was confused because several seconds after instructions to evacuate, the messages changed; this time telling that it was a false alarm and we didn’t have to evacuate

compared to the first false alarm I experienced in Penang earlier, this one in Japan was handled very properly; when a couple and I ran to the office room behind the lift, two officers in fire uniform were walking in — less than 5 minutes!

Japan is really outstanding in emergency management.

my plan to wake up a bit later didn’t happen; I will get prepared to go out early 😍

dear Love, I hope to still believe an alarm when it goes off. 🤭
