aha, a very symbolic flag pole that is!!! gosh, it is too bad we can't use color font. That would look incredible. I know this will do well in the contest for you.

Len Gasun
Date: 7/20/2015 9:24:00 AM

Thank you so much my dear friend, Andrea. Yeah that's a nice idea. I think i will go and check out if color font can be used. Thank you so much. I hope the judge can appreciate my three- line verse poem about our flag. God bless!

I enjoyed your poem about your land..it reminds me how much your people suffer when the terrible cyclones come we see on the TV news...and I'm glad the Catholic Church is loosening its grip on Filipino family life at last!...keep writing Leonora...Peter

Thank you so much my dear friend, Peter. In fact, many typhoons/ cyclones are visiting our country each year. Perhaps, they (cyclones) really thought that there are more fun in the Phil, but our people suffer sooo much. Thanks a million for all the thoughtfulness, prayers and support my dear friend. Once again, thank you for your precious time reading my poem and your encouraging comments. God bless you!
