My Sanctuary (an acrostic poem)

By Amos Sim Kah Heng

Silence beckons
Amos to
Nua (Hokkien for ‘lazing around’) on the red sofa
“Click” goes the light switch as he
Turns on the television and reaches for the remote
Up… right… right… down…
Ahh… this series… what about this one… Let’s continue with Bridgerton!
Respite, rejuvenation, resuscitation
Yup, my home, my sanctuary!
