God, Please Intervene The Affairs Of My Country, Philippines
Slavery is all over the world
The Filipinos are victims of slavery
We have been slaves by Spaniards
We have been slaves by Japanese
We have been slaves by Americans
Our government are fighting slavery
Poor people, we only have government
What if government is the one oppressing
What happen now, the left leaning
The yellow hardliners, the red loyalist
The Lower House,

From the indigenous taste to Spanish

PETALS OF THE PHILIPPINES
Like a hibiscus in full bloom
With vibrant hues of crimson, pink, and gold
So is the rich culture the Philippines hold
A tapestry of colors that brightly loom.
Each petal, as delicate as a butterfly's wing
In the hearts of Filipinos, love takes flight
Their embrace is a beautiful song to sing
Casting warm shadows like a lover's light.
The Philippines

Pearl Of The Orient
Land of the seas and glorious sunshine
Sparkling Pearl of the Orient Sealine
Strategically and truly well-placed
This great country's sun-kissed islands are laced
Lined up with palm fronds and coconut trees
salubrious climate that drives cool breeze
Pearls of Heaven lay scattered in the sea
Are the beautiful islands that we see
Historic past meets glorious future
Modern Philippines is poised to

Pearl of the Orient
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

The Heart of the Philippines
In the heart of the Philippine’s embrace
Is a metropolis pulsating with life
Concrete veins coursing with stories
Unfolding each day within the urban tapestry
Tall buildings stretch towards the sky
Mirroring the aspirations of millions
Each window a glimpse into dreams
A city’s determined and unflappable vibe
Streets are alive with endless motion
Jeepneys weaving through the bustle
Railing against functional dissonance
Manila reverberates with

For My Country
I love my Motherland the Philippines--
Land of my birth and of my ancestors;
To her my strength, my heart, and all my means
I dedicate freely without remorse.
Her majestic mountains and emerald seas
Give her beauty wonderful to behold.
Her clear azure skies and soft, soothing breeze--
Balms to once troubled hearts but now consoled.
The blood of heroes that enriched

CHRISTMAS IN THE PHILIPPINES
Everywhere there's smiling faces
giving and receiving warm embraces
And for a time, sadness disappear
Peace, joy and hope replaces fear.
All because God's love came down
and filled the Philippines all around.
So we celebrate at Christmas time
our Savior and Lord, holy, divine!

It is the greatest gift that we have firmly

Thrilla In Manila - Philippines Coliseum
Well, here we are in the Araneta Coliseum
In Cubao, Quezon City in the Philippines
To witness two modern boxing Gladiators
Their prowess, stature, about to be seen
This will be the third between the WBC, WBA
Stepping into the ring, Joe Frazier and Muhammad Ali
To be Heavyweight Champion their skills will display
Linking satellites for the whole world to see
It's

A Secret Everyone Knows
A Secret Everyone Knows
I care for her approval as much as for her love,
For her affections I would take rocks from the creek and turn them into diamonds,
For her devotion I would catch shooting stars in a net above,
For her truth I would sail a raft to Finland...in winter and,
To see her smile I would

Yet, "adoration" is the FIRST STEP (one way to PRAY) using "A-C-T-S"

Maos China Must Fall
Beyond what’s said and be done,
Lies the hideous Black Sun,
Whose aim is to run a’ground,
To tear and destroy all around,
Plan in the years passed away,
Silent this Dragon appeared to stay,
But behind this stillness insidious lay,
When all were not bothered, they’d party and play,
This ‘Anti-Christ,’ a unity diabolic,
Worked against his foe that frolic,
Rumors spread but silenced
