Maligaya Beauties

Lorraine 

A gorgeous blend of white and brown 
That made the day wipe my deep frown 
A fine maiden with hair like silk 
With skin so soft and white as milk 

Cindy 

Tallest beauty in all of classes 
An appeal that caught the masses 
Like an actress in cheese whiz commercial
Her presence made the day special 

Jaycel 

Her deepening cheeks caught my attention 
A fine maiden that roused my affection 
Like native beauty with brown skin 
But golden smile from deep within 

Roweliza

The sweetest smile I've ever seen 
In all places I've ever been 
But then she called me out of style 
I simply answered her with smile 

Anna May 

The most precious gem of them all 
Charm that could make any heart fall 
A maiden with beauty and brain 
Being with her stops the rain 

*In dedication to the memories of yesteryears beauties of MNHS, 2 Apo and 2 Mayon, under Ms. J. Trinidad before poverty caused me to drop school and leave to seek new heights*
