227 My 36th Leaf

227.

My 36th Leaf



Obtained thee at end

Of new experience

Brought by masteral

A riverside shrub

It's mangrove leaf!



Planted by any

Concerned citizen

Perhaps a student

Or a caretaker

Five barangays care



Cloudy afternoon

About two-thirty

Twenty-first day of

September this year

While going away



From Cadimahan

Floating restaurant

That sails on river

Near mouth of the sea

Mangrove plants along



A nice souvenir

From a rare happening

With my Masteral

Classmates and teacher

On a river tour!
