Noor* of Taj Mahal, jeweled in red stone
death or love, tranquil oasis alone
rich jasper and jade hanging on its walls
in cold melody, mourning music falls
Mesmerizing bride in gossamer gown
Veil reveals... the majestic palace crown.
A medley of corsage strewn in sealed dream
opulent facade, beauty is the theme
Pale blue sky in her iconic magic
wax melded moonlight triumphs a tragic
covenant of love, splendor celebrates
passion so strong will never recreate
Aurora of a queen in marble white
glinting Yamuna*, her sole copyright.
* Noor is an urdu word meaning Light
* Yamuna is the river on the banks of which Taj Mahal lies.
Taj Mahal means Crown of the Palace

I'm Glinda, the Starman Fairy,
or, if you want, I can be the Blue Fairy from Pinocchio.
I'll be whatever you want me to be,
You paid your consulting fee, so
I'll show up as someone you know.
You've got a pretty nice planet here,
better than my home planet - the nicest one I've ever seen.
I would sure hate for it to disappear.
Oh, the grape, the apple, the tangerine,
fields of wheat, seas of aquamarine.
You're facing an existential threat.
Don't take it from corporations or politicians they enlist,
climate change will get much worse yet.
Check the aliens on my client list.
They say, ask independent scientists.
Your people have created wonderful things -
the Great Pyramids, Taj Mahal, Shakespeare, and Machu Picchu -
and you, too, have nature, from which man springs.
Well, I must depart, and I'll miss it so -
would you be sad to see it go?
negativity
peel away layers
behold emptiness

“The finest poetry
is the most feigning.”
—William Shakespeare
Smelling scent soothe my soul
Sits in sleek oven
Simmering Jack-O-Lantern
Smile so nicely
Saliva pours for
Sweet pumpkin
Pie!

Salamat po, Ka Eduardo,
Sa inyo pong pagmamahal;
Inaakay n’yo ang tao
Patungo sa bayang banal.
Kahit mapagod, mapuyat
Ay hindi n’yo alintana;
Ang mahalaga'y matupad
Ang tungkulin n’yo sa Ama.
Ang Iglesia’y tinitipon
Sa lahat halos ng dako;
Panganib ay sinusuong,
Iniikot itong mundo.
Dama ng mga pinili
Ang inyo pong pagsasakit;
Kami‘y hindi masasawi,
Kaligtasa’y makakamit.
Walang iba pang hangarin
Kundi para sa Iglesia;
Nagtagumpay ang mithiin
Sa inyo pong pangunguna.
Sa inyong pangangasiwa,
Puso po ang nangungusap;
Kami ay di nagsasawa,
Pagsamba ay laging hanap.
Pasasakop kaming lubos
Sa Lider Pangkalahatan;
Kami na mga tinubos,
Pagsunod ay di iiwan.
Tutuparin ang tungkulin,
Totoo hanggang sa wakas;
Tatapusin ang takbuhin,
Pag-asa namin ay wagas.
Kayo po ay aming mahal,
Habang kami’y may hininga;
Ang inyo pong pangangaral
Sa amin ay mahalaga.
Dalangin namin sa Diyos,
Patnubayan kayong lagi;
Sa biyaya ay mapuspos,
Kalusuga’y manatili.
Ang Diyos ay pinupuri,
Kami’y Iglesia Ni Cristo;
At nagagalak po kami,
Salamat po, Ka Eduardo.
825.
Pagmamakaawa kina BBM-Sara
Oh Mahal kong BBM-Sara
Ako sa inyo ay nagmamakaawa
Ibalik niyo po ako
Sa CapSU na pinagmulan ko
Bilang AO sa opisina
Na guro rin sa mga bata
Dito ay magagawan ko
Ng mga tula ang ating Pangulo
Gaya ng mga tula
Na aking nagawa
Noon kay Pang. Noynoy Aquino
Sa CapSU ko lang magagawa ito
Hindi ko na yata kaya
Na sa DepEd magparanking pa
Wala na akong panggastos dito
Sana sa CapSU nalang po ako
Mga requirements napasa ko na
Na-interview narin ako nila
Qualified at Eligible po ako
Sa posisyong inaplayan ko
Dito nalang ako sana
Hanggang sa maging Professor ako rito.

*My CapSU Comeback
Nine Eleven—a dark day lives of many workers were stolen away
Individuals worked all night; stayed; without seeing the light of day
Nose to the grindstone below floor level they labored productively
Effectively moving papers, stacks, racks, speedily and so selectively
Encouraged basement overtime; more taxes paid; they worked away
Loyal workers; dedicated to the cause; laziness to them—not a gift!
Earnestly they called home to say, “Honey I am working another shift”
Encouraged by those who stayed; coffee and donuts— no need to pay
Encroachment above they never did see as terror stuck during the day
Night’s darkness envelope the light; underground darkness of the night

A bomb shell dropped
then I realized I’m:
haiku addict—ha!
