Long Eaglet Poems

Once upon a time, we were once boys
But now we have grown to men,
Once upon a time, we were once children

My daughter, you are my firstborn,
My might, the first sign of my strength,
Excelling in honor, excelling in power.

For you are blessed by the Most high God

Marvel your generation will...

We standby singing holy, holy,
Like a priest in a morning mass.
Our passions for our beloved country'
Welfare stands unshaken like the
Mountain in the forest of righteousness.
We would not slack but stand uprightly
To defend and die for...

I lost you with the passing of the years;
You disappeared into the chaos of life 
but, for a time, you were the bedrock of mine 
and the hero of my story.

Confused and without guidance, I...

(another humanity) 

let us withdraw 
and sojourn in Nature
from this world 
of labor and knowledge:
 
physical labor 
destroys us
if we live to eat
knowledge 
spoils us
if we fail to live 
by what we know— 

Nature redeems...

An eaglet raised with barnyard birds
will never soar to towering heights.
Though armed with wings designed for flight
It will never reach soaring height.

Thoughts are like wings designed to soar
They’re active every waking blink.
But how you choose...

Want To Do Your Best

Eagle was with white wings which were elegant
And wherever he would fly or even had went
Was majestic, glorious and also so mighty
Taking all things seriously and never lightly.

The first stretch of wings
Is when you make it flap
Oh, don't you lose balance
You really can make it, that's for sure

You're not to be afraid
You're not to be afraid

The second you hop
Know it is coming

The chick killed its brother;
the weak have to be expelled
from the nest,
It had to be the last and the first,
the one still instinctively pecking,
still begging from the raw red mouth
to endure long enough to soar.

You see what's in my heart
Only you alone can guide me

Homey Hiatus, Hiatus Homey

Anticipation

Like a cold night's yearning for sun's warmth,
I await her.

Like a dry sand beach welcomes the tide,
