The Demise of a Wondrous Storyteller
Her hands spun invisible threads
Of fables and stories from everyone
While making it real, it became surreal
And spun the threads to be a carpet of lore
That's the miracle of the wondrous storyteller
Although fictitious as the stories be
When one catches a glimpse of her piece
It was more than that
More than art
More than a form
It became a song
Sung from the depths of hearts, entwined
In tune with the song of the world
That's the miracle of the wondrous storyteller
Alas, the Mighty One say
A rest I shall give to her
And He kisses her forehead
And she slept
Though the wondrous storyteller has gone
With the stars at night she shone
And her web of stories
Will continue to be her immortal legacy
-dedicated to the late Yasmin Ahmad, the wondrous storyteller who gave us Sepet, Gubra, Mukshin and lots of those unforgettable adverts that brings us both laughter and tears. Forever she will be my inspiration.
May her soul rests in peace.

Hello Cynta, regret I am not familiar who she is, but lots of bloggers have or are paying tribute to her.
I guess she must have made an impact on most everyone, except the politicians, from what I gather.
Pity she has passed away at her prime.
Best regards, Lee.
