Oh, How I Love the SeaWhen I was a kid,
I only knew the sea from a distance—
from the deck of a ship,
sailing from Manila to Bacolod.
I’d lean against the railings,
watching the water stretch limitless,
wondering what it felt like to touch.
It wasn’t until high school
that I finally stepped into it.
Waves around my legs,
sand between my toes.
And just like that,
I fell in...

Oh SilenceOh silence
Sweet silence
No traffic
No noise
No planes in the sky
No neighbours’ loud boys
No tossing tree sounds
Just silence
Sweet silence
Embracing all round.
Pure silence
Pure silence
A precious possession
God’s gift to mankind.
And peace in the heart
Only Jesus can give
He told us he could
“My peace, yes, my peace
I give unto you!”
“Peace I leave with you, my peace I give to you. Let...

WE HAVE A CHOICEWe are all born for such a time as this today
Everyone had enough of the worlds fighting
How long will this selfish greed carry on for?
Are we any different from all our ancestors
Viewing the world for what's it has to hold
Eventually, we became consumers of greed
Anger only hurts those showing the anger
Children's we got to learn...

IN THE LAND OF PEACEOnce upon a time
in a faraway land
There was an old man, who had forgotten how to speak
His eyes would stare into the sky, void of any emotion,
His scars turned wrinkles narrated an untold story
His hands, never steady, always counting
Sometimes in the middle of the day, he would scream
But no sound would escape his mouth,...

We'll unfold our versesIf everything’s been written
And everything been said
We won’t speak anymore
Won’t write anymore.
But if we are the new prophets
Sent to remind manhood
The world belongs to God
And if the world drowns off
In the mud of inky well
And scribes and Pharisees
Roar in the vanities
Then we’ll still howl our dreams
Writing down all our visions
And against their arsenals
We will unfold...

Finding PeaceFacing my new reality can be overwhelming
I am blessed to be the mother of two sons
one of which is accomplishing great things
here on earth and the other is in heaven
I have always been proud of both of my sons,
and of course, I love them both no matter what,
but it is difficult knowing that my youngest...

Summer's Glow
pleading petals play gently in the sun
whispering joy across the sticky skin
summertime blessings cannot be outdone
however, autumn is her next of kin
praying roses and melancholic buds
remembering our heart’s tender healing
hanging in timeless ache of fair redbuds
season’s bliss lifts shadows who’re concealing
promising the night stars, moon and fireflies
rousing such beauty the skies come to life
only God...

Death of the EgoI never thought they would figure me out
How could they find me in the layers of illusion?
I never thought one could completely turn about
So many pleasures, I kept them in confusion
Now after all these years, it has come to this
I push the same buttons, but their minds start to think
They’ll kill their ego in their...
