Ulan

Matatapos na ang tag-init
Bubuhos na muli ang malalakas na ulan
Ang mga uhaw na lupa’y madidiligan nang muli
Ang mga bitak na naukit sa init ay pagtatagpuin nanamang muli
Ang mga nanunuyot na ilog ay aapaw nanamang muli

Tag-ulan na bubuhos nanaman ang malalaks na ulan
Madidiligan na rin itong nanunuyot ko’ng balat
Na pinangarap madiligan ng iyong mga pawis habang magkayakap
Mahugasan sana to’ng mga sugat na nagiinit na sa sakit
To’ng mga bitak sa puso na inukit ng sakit 
Ay tila di na maghihilum at di na muling mapagtatagpo
Kaya tanging pakiusap gawan mo ito ng ilog
Pagmukain mo’ng magandang alaala 
Kahit na ang umaagos dito ay mga bumabahang sakit

Tag ulan na naman bubuhos na naman ang malalakas na ulan
Sa gitna nito’y magagawa ko’ng tumayo sayo’ng harapan
Magagawa ko’ng ngumiti kahit na nasasaktan
Ang mga luha’y aagos nang di mo namamalayan
Ang pagpatak ng mga luha’y sasabay sa pagpatak ng ulan
Ito’ng sakit na nararamda’y magagawang pagtakpan
Ito’ng sakit na di na kayang hugasan kahit pa ang nagngangalit na bagyo
Itong sakit ay di kayang lunurin kahit pa sa pinakamalalim na baha ng karagatan
Matapos man itong tag-ulan at kahit na ilang malalakas na bagyo ang dumaan
Itong pag mamahal sa’yo ay mananatiling buhay at mananatiling sa’yo.

Lionel, , Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@"
