Far away, down there...
Jangan tertawa ya, ini mungkin tulisan terbodoh kedua ku di blog ini... :D
FAR AWAY, DOWN THERE...
Years ago.. about 20,
on a sunny weekend,
there was this family,
who went out to the beach.
It was hot,
and humid,
as it had always been,
in that tropical island of Java.
***
Parangtritis, as people called that beach,
was not like it is now...
well, almost not.
Yes, it has always been a bit dirty,
peanut shells all over,
and corn cobs here and there...
And the andong... it smells :)
***
The family walked on the grey ugly sand,
and hot too.
They walked closer to the water...
till their feets get wet,
and cool.
"Swimming in sea strictly prohibited",
says a large sign on the beach.
The water has the hugest ombak they've ever seen.
People don't get killed by sharks here.
Huge monstrous waves does the job.
Swallowing any stupid kid,
who dares to swim far into the sea...
***
There's been plentier beaches they've seen,
and more pleasant ones too.
This one is special though,
at least to that family...
yes it was rather smelly,
and a bit dirty you can say,
and certainly dangerous if you're not aware...
but who cares...
Can you see?
Home was just down there. Far away, down there.

Hmmm...mulai buat poem juga^_^ boleh...boleh...gak mengecewakan kok. Ayoooo ngaku, kangen rumah ya^o^
hmm... iya semacam itu lah. kangen 'rumah', waktu itu... if you know what i mean...
kamu kan sering pindah2 aya, tahu kan maksudku?? :D

(Aya)... Tepatnya mungkin bukan kangen rumah... tapi kangen ama orang-orangnya.... hehehhe. Lai ada masalah ya Fan??
Udah selesai assingment-nya??? Kok sekarang udah online lagi??
(Mina) Terbodoh kedua?? Yang pertama kayaknya yang judulnya BUNDA ya Fan?? Atau "Astagfirullah I have done it"??? Hehehhe aku berasa paparazzi banget....
Peace Fan
Bakhrian, untung dikau mengingatkanku... jadi yg skrg ini bukan yg kedua terbodoh, tapi yang ketiga, hehe... (yg BUNDA tdk kuanggap bodoh lho tp, ada lagi satu)
Duh kyknya memang ga bakat nulis ni.. sebenarnya maksudku waktu itu aku kangen dgn tempat yg dulunya pernah jd rumah kami (kangen rumah+orang2+semua)... jauh di selatan, di balik ujung laut yg tidak kelihatan, dari pantai parangtritis, pikirku...waktu itu.
Yasudahlah ga perlu dirembug lagi, toh ga terlalu penting kali.. :p
aku juga lagi kangen rumah banged. Kalo malam, aku sering minta jalan-jalan ke malioboro! Pengen jalan-jalan di Jogja, I am used to almost everyday jalan-jalan jama dulu sewaktu masih kuliah. lebih parah ya? hiks..hiks..
