For JCB's Pearl of the Orient Poetry Contest
Pearl of the Orient is she - mountains lush and beaches pristine, the flowering banaba tree, and loveliness that gleams in green. Let your eyes on her beauty feast. Pearl of the Orient is she - bound by an ocean to the east; to the west the South China Sea. Oh, let me be there so carefree, barefoot on sands of Baracay. Pearl of the Orient is she. In her waters I wish to play. Gems are her friendly people too. Their many islands call to me and Philippine Sea’s azure blue. Pearl of the Orient is she.
