We three pups of Orient are…. Lounging in stockings, not so far. Shield and mountain, paws and fountains, Following yonder star…. Oh, oh…. Star of wonder, star of bite Star of normal beauty, bright, Westward leading, teeth receding… Give us our bones, we want tonight....

Pearl of the Orient, the archipelagic goddess of the Sea, beautiful as the Magindara, who's siren song calls to me, her soul is as rich and sweet, as the chocolate hills of her bosom, terraces act as stairways to her heart, where she bleeds of Red Jasper, her eyes are lustrous and alluring, glowing like star lanterns and fireflies, the North Star and Southern...

Sandy beaches embrace realms of pristine coastline, Harboring lush foliage, embodying sublimity divine, Of marine life, corals, reveling warmth of idyllic clime, Reminiscent of paradise, of placidity, stilled in time. Fun...

Surrounded by tranquil turquoise waters, Guarded on sides by oceans three, In the east by the Pacific, On the south by the Celebes Sea, And on the west by the south China Sea, There is an archipelago on the blue water crescent, A group of islands, called Philippines, Encircled by a girdle of gleaming silver, With its shores of stretching sandy...
