Hari yang sungguh membosankan di ofis. Lalu aku sms Kri dan beremail dengannya. Kami berbalas-balas sms dan email. Kri yang cuba menghilangkan rasa bosanku memberitahu satu berita gembira. Dia telah dihubungi oleh Noble House, yang ingin menerbitkan puisi Kri, 'MAHSURI CAN WAIT' yang ditulisnya untuk ku sedikit masa dulu.
Sebenarnya, Kri ada memberitahu aku ada sedikit kontroversi berkenaan Noble House dan Poetry.com bila ramai penyajak membuat aduan terhadap mereka dan dia menghantar puisi ini hanya untuk suka-suka. Tak kisahlah sebab aku pun suka. Ini dia puisinya:
MAHSURI CAN WAIT
Mahsuri can wait
for another thousand years
as today the queen of my throbbing heart
have summoned for me in her royal court
and here I am
a loyal knight in shining armour, awaiting
for her every royal wish and bidding
at her majestic palace of love
Mahsuri can wait
for another thousand years
as today the high priestess has chosen
my throbbing heart as sacrificial token
and here I am
an abiding devotee before her altar
with my throbbing my heart on a platter
at her mystical temple of devotion
Mahsuri can wait
for another thousand years
as today you have held your hands out
and softly touched my throbbing heart
and here I am
locked in your eternal embrace I lay
forever and ever, come whatever may
in this historic city of surrender
