DOON PO SA AMIN by jesrael rivera

doon po sa ming bayan ng magiting

mga di palulupig sa bawat tiisin

di napasusuko di naptitigatig

may tibay ng loob may tatag ng dibdib



doon po sa amin may pagtutulungan

lahat may bahagi sa bigat ng pasan

kasamang kikilos magpapakapagal

laging aagapay sa mga hirap ng buhay


sa amin mayroong ngiti sa mga labi

kung batiin ka sa umaga o gabi

at malugod pusong pagkamatuluyin

yaman ng lahi na pinagmamapuri



doon po sa amin ay nakawiwili

ugaling taglay bawat salinlahi.

ASSURED
By: Airyn Lentija-Sloan

When your evening falls,
turning round the praises
to vile words and hates.
And the quite moon
leads your sleepless thoughts,
wandering to the mute sky;
Close your tired eyes
and hear the soothing sound
of your heart's strings,
as my love pluck them tenderly.
Feel the gentle touch
of the warm air
that carries my kisses,
my sweet embraces
and blazing words:
my undying love for you.
I speak not about "oneness"
or the usual "entertwined".
"Security" is what we found
amidst the spectrum of lies.
Assurance stood hard by,
For an instant,You and I
and our love like no other
creates some "aha!" moments
at times when our world freezes
our feelings ignite like stars,
melting each burdens to end
each nights with "I Love You"

a poem from dhenski lasic

In his eyes I can see the pain

I can hear his silent cry
I can feel it with his trembling hand
He said no words but I know he suffered a lot
To give his children anything they want

Years is taking him down
But he won’t give up, he just don’t want to give it up
All the needles, all the drugs
He’ll take it just to live
To see his children grow
To see them happy

But now he can’t take one more blow
And I witness how he kneels before god
Praying not for him but for us, his children
To guide us in our lives
To embrace us in his ways

What a precious gift he was
A loving father to us
I can’t repay him with everything he has done
But my hugs and kisses make him smile
And I know I made him happy
In my simplest way of saying thank you!!!!

Limang Tanaga ng Pagmumuni

Ni KA EZZARD GILBANG


BUHAY NGA NAMAN
May pahila-hilatang
may sahod na biyaya,
at may halos makubang
daliri’ng nginunguya!

KABALINTUNAAN
Nang sa sakit naratay
pagkai’y umaapaw,
sa may panlasang gutom;
wala man lang ni tutong!

KAMAY
Kung haplos, dumadamay.
Kumakaway, kung paalam.
Nanunumpa, kung tunay.
Kamao, kung lumaban!

PANSAMANTALA
Kinang na kumikislap
maglalaho’t kukupas;
Bubot man na bulaklak,
bukas ay mapipigtas!

ISA PANG KABALINTUNAAN
Nang masigla’t malakas
ay ayaw makausap,
nang mata ay mapikit
ay tinatanong pilit!

sinong naiwan sa kanila? ni sanilyn gianan

sinong naiwan sa kanila?
ni sanilyn gianan


narito kayong lahat

ngunit sinong naiwan sa kanila?


humihinga ng hanging

mas malamig dahil sa niyebe

habang sila'y nagtitiis

sa usok na panghele


naghahanap ng luntiang paligid

sila nama'y tumataya

na sa biyaya ng pagmamasid


narito kayong lahat

ngunit sinong naiwan sa kanila?


silang halos di na makahinga?


silang nababatikos na maralita?

silang gumagapang, kumakahig

namumuhay higit pa sa daga?


wala ba kayong kamay na

pang aruga?


malayo nga pala tayo

malayo sa kanila.....
