Poem to the Lord

Poetry on doubt

And God says - carry your cross
And I hastily said, ok fine
carry on Boss

He's a good superior
though sometimes I wonder
if it's okay to ponder

I have many questions
and I know He only has the answer
So I prayed and said... Hello Sir!

I'm your humble servant
But it's the 20th century,
I should know the reason
Should I be allow to query?

Subtly, Gently
He said in a good manner
Just love everything
soon, you will find the answer

So I move on, carry my cross with delight
Still knowing that somehow I have seen the light
the answer is love,
very good answer from the Lord Above

Poem for Blink

Blink was a student of mine who took his own life a few years ago...

dear student

why did you have to take down your life
when there is so much to do
why did you give up so fast
when life is not yet thru with you

you are a masterpiece
another creation so unique
another version of the human kind
yet you still have to find

the mystery of everything
the reasons from questions of every human being

but you have given up so fast
you have given up on breathing

Now i wish i was there but i was late
to guide you thru all your hard times
and comfort you, give you strength
and find that Life is full of meaning....

I'm sorry my dear student....

Poetry to a stranger

Dear Stranger
How do I love thee?
For I may not know
how your heart flow...
But I wonder if you can
just truly see
The beauty that radiates
within you and me...

But it is slowly fading...
Like the withering of time...

And God knows if this distance
will be forever
God knows if you will not be
forever mine..

Tula para sa mga tulala

Naaalala ko pa
Malulungkot ang iyong mga mata..
Kahit na itago sa inyong masasayang kanta

At naaapektuhan ako,
Kasi kahit papano, kay Hesus kpatid ang turing ko syo

At sana meron akong magawa
Kahit man lang pagdasal ka sa Poong may Awa

Kaya eto ngayon.. Kumakatha ng tula
