"tidak diizinkan matahari mengejar bulan

dan

tidak pula malam mendahului siang.

tiap sesuatu berjalan pada landasan (masing-masing)"

How very true.. and this is my story.. that relates very well to the above saying.

I took a day's leave to be with twin boy no. 4 - Danial and twin girl no. 5 - Damira for their final outcome of their 11 years of schooling last 11 March. I were to go along with girl no. 5 to her school, while boy no. 4 managed himself at his school.

Well.. all that was planned, was executed as planned but my car decided to give away and broke down right smack at the traffic light nearby Danial's school. It was almost noon at that point in time and we were stranded right under the hot blazing sun. phewwwww!

err That lorry driver was honking madly before I alighted from the car and told him softly that my car broke down.. and that nothing much I could do.

He smiled in embarrassment and said "Oh, rosak ye? Apa yang rosak?"

he he he.. I spared myself explaining to him what was wrong with the car though.

Damira was err very patient and I must say.. anxiety under very much in control.. though she decided to stay put in the car and receiving/responding all sms and calls from her friends who already knew their SPM 2009 result.

(jauh renung tu)

yup! She was very cool that very crucial day.. and I was very sure of her accomplishment yet to be known.

Juniors at the school who were on duties.

Well.. it really showed on the smile eh?

Damira was very happy indeed with her achievement.. alhamdulillah atas Kurnia Ilahi.

and.. listening further of her ex-teacher.

oh.. what was that frowned look?

Listening with great interest kot?

all that is well.. ends well

the Mind is an Enchanting Thing

is an enchanted thing

.....like a glaze on a
katydid-wing
..........subdivided by sun

..........till the nettings are legion.
like Gieseking playing Scarlatti;

like the apteryx-awl
.....as a beak or the
kiwi's rain-shawl
..........of haired fathers, the mind
..........feeling its way as though blind,
walks along with its eyes on the ground.

it has memory's ear
.....that can hear without
having to hear.
..........like the groyscope's fall,
..........truly unequivocal
because trued by regnant certainty,

it is a power of
.....strong enchantment. it
is like the dove-
..........neck animated by

..........suns; it is memory's eyes;

it's conscientious inconsistency.

it tears off the veil; tears
.....the temptation, the
mist the heart wears,
..........from its eyes, - if the heart

..........has a face; it takes apart

dejection. it's fire in the dove-neck's

iridescence; in the
.....inconsistencies
of Scarlatti.
..........unconfusion submits

..........its confusion to proof; it's

not a Herod's oath that cannot change.

girl no. 3.. and her interpretation of girl no. 5..
girl no. 5.. who is always patronising the boys.. it seems.

pejai = boy no. 2
aboy = twin boy no. 4
baby = boy no. 6

mira = twin girl no. 5
