Unabashedly Singapore

The green,
The lush,
And the crisp of the trees

The spick,
The span,
And the cleanliness on streets

The spin,
The buzz,
And bursting with gist

The hot,
The sticky,
The weather of heat

The patter,
The chatter,
The noise on the bus

The jam,
The impatience,
The horns from the cars

The food,
The shopping,
The passion to indulge

The police,
The security,
The need for no doubts

The lights,
The city,
From dawn up to dusk

The government,
Our homeland,
In whom we all trust.
