Tigers

Tigers are mean.
Tigers are fierce.
Tigers have teeth
and claws that pierce.

Tigers are great,
they can't be beat.
If I was a tiger,
that would be neat.

Tigers are nimble
and light on their toes,
my respect for tigers
continually grows.

Tigers are perfect,
the e-pit-o-me
of good looks and grace
and quiet dignity.

Tigers are great!
They're the toast of the town.
Life's always better
when a tiger's around!

Being National Day, everyone was decked out in red, even the cows.












Some chose to show their patriotism in a more unconventional manner.



































While the nation celebrated, others kept a close watch over her.

Balloons for release later during the Parade's finale.


















These are Singapore's 25-pounder artillery guns. Used in the 1940s as part of the island's defences, these guns have been retired to being ceremonial guns.












When the President reviews the Guard-of-Honour contingents, these 25-pounders are fired as a mark of highest respect. This is known as the 21-gun salute, a military tradition which dates back to the 14th century.
