I n sovereignty, we unite... we stand, N ation’s brighter future is now on hand; D ream a dream for the success of everyone, E arnestly pray for God’s aid and His constant guidance. P resent economic status will move forward, E mancipating from restraints, one’s welfare is on guard; N othing is as precious as the gift of freedom, D emographic beliefs and interests-- the first priority to come. E nvisage our country’s future generation, N ationalism with one goal, our state will prosper soon; C itizens will exercise their rights in full cooperation, E xhibiting kinship, love and peace with respect to other nations. ©2012Leonora Galinta All Rights Reserved July 20, 2015 11.10pm Fifth Place Contest: Celebrate Independence Judged: 7/27/2015 Sponsor: Poet Kim Merryman

Oh, ever dearest Sis and BFF of mine, you fattened my heart with that most wonderful comment. You really are my most wonderful poetic sis and friend who encourage me a lot in my writing. Thank you, thank you so much cuz as of now, I still look at myself as a poet who writes simple poems and most of the time lack confidence in my work. You're also a brilliant poet, Sis, and remember you're my my most fave and #1 idol. I love you. Thank you sooo much again. Sending you loveliest hugs n kisses! God bless!
