Prologue
People nowadays are lead fast paced lives. This is especially true for people living in sophisticated cities and Singapore is no exception. We are often so results oriented and want instant gratification that we almost always forget the small details in life that make it so incredible and wondrous. This photograph shows the delicate touches of nature that we rarely notice. As compared to vast and endless horizons or towering mountains, this picture depicting a spider crawling across a leaf seems insignificant, but is an integral part of nature nonetheless.

Steadily
Surely
Confidently
Inching,
Edging
Across the bouncing weightless leaf
Of bright green.
Like a pirate walking the plank
Or an acrobat doing the tight rope
But never falling.
No cheers or applause for the spider
Going on its daily routine
unnoticed
