Lost in Vancouver

I set forth on this land of mystery years ago, 

never knowing the true beauty of within. 

From the West - 

there is the never ending forest of UBC;

to the East - 

there are the countless high rises in Metrotown. 

Up North - 

the busy streets of downtown, 

cultures meet each other on the crossings. 

The gusts of morning coffee leads the way 

into the wild nature of the Grouse Mountain. 

Down South - 

dim lights and clamorous sound of Chinese Restaurants and Shopping Centres

surrounded by River Road, 

the smell of bursted berries and fertilized farm land 

gushes along the No.3 Road.  

So little history among all cities, 

yet so much value and spirit.

The lack of internet and access of technology in 2010,

blocked my vision to the outside world. 

So I would have never guessed  

how a continent half way across the globe

could be more beautiful than home? 

Death

3:30PM

I Woke up from my daily dose of nap, 

realized it was a beautiful afternoon on a Saturday. 

Before hanging out with my best mate in a couple of hours, 

I sat on the stairs of my front yard

thinking what it means to be alive.

Until a blustering scream, 

and an ear-piercing cry 

drew near from the backside of the yard that my neighbours and I share.

I walked towards the sound of agony,

spotted a creature lying down,

feared to move. 

My neighbours were unconfident about the situation, 

but I walked up and gave the creature my hands. 

Examined his cloth, 

to make sure he wasn't badly hurt. 

I then took him up the stairs of my yard to help him heal. 

However, 

I then saw more of the creatures, 

desperately looking for the one I helped. 

I waved my hands to draw attention. 

But then, 

a click clack and a sound of a thunder, 

I fall on the floor. 

the last thing i see, 

is being pointed by a long,

black stick.
