BAHAY KUBO III

A makeshift house
Walking distance by the sea
No matter how poor and humble
It is a house and a home
Made of light materials
Bamboos, cogons, and madre cacaos
Relatives and friends helped me
Built this through thick and thin inspired
Sometimes, laughing at its posture
But we are definite
We live on it sharing and enjoying company, despite
We shall put decors little by little
Wood carvings and our poems and pics in frame
We are sure we’ll make a shift life from abroad to rural lives
Bringing out our love in fresh air days
Enjoying the dragon fruit blooms
And under moonlight nites!

Terms:
Bahay Kubo  -- a small hut 
Cogons--a wild plant  that can be gathered when mature and can be used as a 
roof.  It is not so popular anymore as roofs have been replaced with more durable 
materials in the market.
Madre cacao-- A tree in the Philippines which has several general purposes.  Its big 
branches can be used as  posts for  small houses.  
Dragon fruit--cactus-like tree, blooms only at night! It has anti-oxidant properties 
which help prevent cancer-causing free radicals. (from Wikipedia)

Note:  This is my dream in its stage 3!!
