By Marguerite MacLean© There is this little island- you’d think it was a dream The sun is always shining the trees plenty and green With a wealth of fine characters all friendly and polite This special city is a jewel both day and night! CHORUS: It’s the Island I love You’ve guessed – it’s Singapore! I witness such peace here – joy and so much more. There’s something for all here for peace and harmony This futuristic City is fit for any Queen A place for respect for each and everyone No littering, no jaywalking to spoil our neighbour’s fun. CHORUS Architecture like nowhere else in the world today Hardworking citizens who deserve to work and play. CHORUS The crime is almost nil here, and honesty is tops The public transport excellent and not to mention shops! CHORUS On every single corner the food is plentiful Uniquely prepared- spicy…colourful I’ve yet to find a dish I don’t want to try… To and from this island, it’s so easy to fly CHORUS It’s the Island I love You’ve guessed – it’s Singapore! I witness such peace here – joy and so much more. (As COMPASS member here in Singapore, Marguerite MacLean has been an unofficial Ambassador .
