poem of the desert

 Posted by Picasa

In time's desert I feel your presence.
In the rock's silence I hear your footstep.
Emotion overcomes me.
Then, like a sudden downpour
Fear of death startles me. (`Abd Al-Sabour 1992, 64)

poem number two

my first dose of freedom!

when i first set foot on America, i noticed that the freedom of speech is really in practise there, like this bumper sticker here



i guess that's why the Americans are known for their bumper stickers, sometimes "at your face", sometimes outright funny or stupid, sometimes cynical. The funny thing is, i first saw this sticker more than 10 years ago and it is still relevant today!

my cloak for the journey



for those who don't realise that I'm traveling at my own pace, this is my bumper sticker for you

Let the journey begin



Bumper stickers are either thought provoking or simply silly! This is one of my favorites. I find it appropriate to be picked as a traveler's bumper sticker, to discover life, we need to embark on its journey and be a true wayfarer or die wondering what's out there....
