Feelings
By Patricia Anne Calvo
For what I say is my emotions’ seal
I shall limit
My words to only what I feel
I prefer the truth than an enchanting reel
I’d prefer reality than what is surreal
To me, to find true love, is a zeal
If yours or my feelings fail to congeal
I won’t mind shifting my steering wheel
Dreams
By Patricia Anne Calvo
By Patricia Anne Calvo
When I plan to love you for as long as I live?
First in mind every morning
And dreams of you by the evening
How much more can I give?
I’ll love you more than you’ll ever know
And the one you can be free with as a dove?
And everyday it continues to grow
Are you Love?
By Patricia Anne Calvo
The one to be the right to your left glove?
We won’t wait weeks, months, but more
But I won’t think of that as a bore
By Patricia Anne Calvo
The one to be the right to your left glove?
We won’t wait weeks, months, but more
But I won’t think of that as a bore
Because you’re everything that I’ve asked for
Can’t wait for you to walk through the front door
I don’t care, it’s worth the waitPie in the Sky
by: Mariella Pauline Gutierrez
Fingertips reaching out
endlessly,
Pupils wavering at the sky hopelessly,
Wondering why the society is
against your plans,
And antagonists waving out with flying pans.
You have
an idea, a concept, a dream,
And so are your fellow people in
their own realm
But there is just this little difference
That yours were high as the sky, an impossible preference.
But though shall not be sad,
Because your hopes were not that bad.
It will be possible if you start
small, And
then, like magic, victory will be your call.
Fingertips reaching out
endlessly, Pupils
wavering at the sky hopelessly
Hold on to the strand of your
hopes tighter.
For him,
for her, for them, for the society, for the better.
Heroes Defined
By Mariella Pauline Gutierrez
They danced to the beat of a different drum
From their very own road they will come
Will paint the world with black and white
An ironic combination of emotions kept tight.
Their ideas swim from the depths of reality
That shallow minds often classify them surreality
Truth is, there’s this word called creativeness
That covers the
rough skin into tenderness.
Today you call them strange
When they’re
only people who wanted change
A change for the sake
of the society
and some particular who They’re called heroes,
you’ve forgotten
them, don’t you?
The Philippine Pen
By
Mariella Pauline Gutierrez
You
write some good stuff, what language do you use? You are great and skilled,
what language do you use?
You can persuade and influences, from which country are you? You
write so well but first things first, how nationalist are you?
The
restless days when you write with emotion The fingers on one hand getting stiff
and you question
For
what, whom, or why do I write this thing Is it for myself, the society, or
anything?
“Country”
is a word one should never forget It should stay in your mind before you regret
The
land you were born in deserves an expectation That you will protect and love
your own nation.
The strangers passed to ruin our culture And made our eyes look at
them in the future But why would we, Filipinos, let them to do so
When
we are expected nationalism to forego?
heThe
drops of ink are the number of hearts Who dedicated themselves and all of their
parts
With endless number of pages that tell us one message Being proud
of our nation is the best pilgrimage.
12
Midnight
By
Mariella Pauline Gutierrez
Twelve could mean a lot of things Twelve can be the number itself
Twelve could mean how much money she brings, But here twelve is
the time to wake up yourself.
When twelve strikes it means another day Another tomorrow, a new
future
You tend to reflect what you’ve done yesterday
Anything good? Anything better?
Have you done something for your
culture?
Twelve is a number that reminds you dear citizen
To escape
surrealism and battle with reality
A tap on your shoulder to say you’re awaken
Somebody needs your
attention, the name is Country!
The Filipino Bullet
By Mariella Pauline Gutierrez
Who thought that only villains could
shoot? And heroes will lose and fall on their foot? Guns don’t choose the hand
that will hold
But wait for the one who gets hot in the cold
Once in our lifetime we choose our own target The intense emotions
are suppressed in your pocket Waiting for the villains to appear
And end their plans that we call severe
Filipinos! It’s time, have we had enough?
From sufferings, misgovernance and colonizers’ bluff?
Let us raise our guns high up in the sky
It will serve as our hopes to be free and fly high.
Opisyales
Isinulat ni: Judith Anne Jabson
Ano na nga ba ang nangyayari sa lipunan?
Tila hindi na ito isang bansa na pwedeng masandalan Mga opisyales
ay hindi mapagkatiwalaan
Akala’y sila ang solusyon
Sa lumalalang taghirap at korupsyon. Ngunit tayo yata’y nag kamali
ng desisyon.
Eleksyon ay nalalapit na
Paano natin Makikilatis ang susunod na Pulitiko? Kung ang
ipinakita nila’y mga pakitang tao?
Paano nga ba mamili?
Tayong mga Pilipino ay dapat maging wais Dahil kung hindi natin
sila makikilatis, Sa huli, tayo na naman ang mag titiis.
Reklamador
Isinulat ni Judith Anne Jabson
Nakakakinis
ang pilipinas
Walang asenso
sa pilipinas
Madumi ang
pilipinas
Walang kwenta
ang pilipinas.
Ano ang kahihinatnan ng bansa?
Kung puro reklamo
Kung puro na lamang negatibo?
Nakasanayan nay an ng mga Pilipino
Walang magbabago sa ating bansa,
Kung lahat ay nakatunganga.
Kung walang may gumagawa
Lahat tayo’y nakatunganga
Baguhin natin muna ang sarili
Mga makakabuti ay gawin
At makikita natin
Ang bansa ay
unti unting magbabago.
Pagunlad ay Makakamit
isinulat ni Judith Anne Jabson
Ako ay nagtataka
Bakit
di ko Makita ang pag-unlad ng bansa?
Puro
suliranin at problema.
Pumupuno
sa aking mga mata
Simulan natin sa problemang maliit
Maging huwaran tayo sa paligid
Maraming
bagay ang pwedeng gawin.
Tiyak, pag-unlad ay makakamit.
Lahat tayo at pwedeng tumulong.
Mapa-unlad ang paligid at mapayabong
Sa ating mga simpleng paraan,
Siguradong
unlad ang ating Nayon.
Media or Fame?
By: Judith Anne Jabson
Children
almost see all things today.
They know that life doesn’t have to be this way.
They
see all the lies.
So
that’s why they close their eyes.
All the gun
and knife fights today.
Why all hate and war started this way? I
s media part of
the blame?
Or all people, all the fame should take the blame.
Kabataan Ngayon
Isinulat ni: Judith Anne Jabson
Paglakad sa kalye
Mga batang namamalimos .
Sa lansangan sila’y nagkalat.
Dahil walang makain na sapat.
Sa halip na nasa paaralan Nagbabanat ng buto at nagtatarabaho.
Kasalanan ba ng magulang?
O lipunan at gobyerno ang may pagkukulang?
Minsan ako’y napalingan,
Mga kabataang nagnanakaw, nagdodroga. Mga kabataang napariwara.
Buhay ba nila’y balewala?
Sino nga ba ang dapat sisihin? Gobyerno na dapat ay may solusyon.
Puro salita ang gobyerno.
Sila mismo ang nagkakait ng maginhawang buhay.
