Romeo Naces Poet Tail-rhyme

Sampaguita, Eternal For a While

Sampaguita...for the shortest while, eternal;

           blissful enigma, serene beauty, 

                       paradisiacal.


Dew-kissed white petals lift its fragrant oblation,

               gratitude, prayer and hope 

                     of a troubled nation.


Blossoming, beaming  upward to see the sky smile,

         Sampaguita...eternal for the shortest 

                              while!
