Little Jose (Vignette)

A half of him fell into the river running wild, Yet still, his spirits remained in manner mild. Then, he tossed freely the other half and said: “Go! Seek thy mate that this great joy o’ thine Be upon those who find you, slippers o’ mine!” Note: This tribute poem is about an event in Dr. Jose P. Rizal's early life. He was a poet/author of "Noli Me Tangere" and "El Filibusterismo", his famous novels that cost his life.
