Chai Chee

Boy had a backyard filled with rolling hills

Few neighbours to play with time on his hands

He laid seeds of vision upon these land

Didn't forget to water dedication

At night he lied on bed thought of his seeds

In the day he perched on top of his hills

Watching seeds grow into green emeralds

Generous boy fed his neighbours these greens

Hustle and bustle soon became these hills

Happy with his hard work and its newness

The boy spurred his neighbours to follow suit

Seeing the sparkle in his eyes they nodded

Gifts of his vision conceived on his world

He now sat in his backyard with legs up

His children drinking coffee next to him

Had other ideas 'bout kampong expanse
