Today i visited one of the only places in Singapore that has not been tourched to the digatal age Kranji commonwealth war grave for those whom perished during the second world war in South East Asia...to many boys lie there, to many names of the missing in neat lines adorn the high walls in white stone one can sit amongst all these ghosts and look across modern Singapore Easter Sunday i thought God i thought..no not quite..i watched the mass rapid transport system trundle below as if simply pushed by the wind, the stillness upon that hill,gave food for thought...the visitors book is still pen and paper and the headstones are still white stone bright in the sunshine..When i am long gone they will still be here..much remembered judging by the visitors book as each generation gathers, and not in vain if no more white head stones are planted amongst the neatly trimmed green grass.
