Eagle's Salute

Oh, say, can you see
Here our treasure lies buried:
America’s brave
Died for star spangled banner
And the homeland of the free.

Dan, Dan, was a popular man
had a plaid for his homeland clan
	his kilt it slipped
	cold breeze it nipped
less popular now than he began

From the river to the sea

The galleries silent, 

Some face the walls 

Did you see that 

The rivers are blood red

and they flow 

from forehead to homeland...

Cherokee Speaks

At the rising sun they came,

driving us from our homeland.

Miles and miles our people limped.

The weakened ones fell.

Peaceful Spring!

Greetings to all women: it's a peaceful spring and sky,
And mirthful homeland of people and children, they smile
And say: Jane, dear mama, thank you!

Man's Jacket

staring at
the sepulcher of someone he idolizes
walking through his homeland

everybody's unknown
pays no mind, he's only visiting
wearing the man's jacket

Looking Back

The past is a foreign homeland,
 familiar yet strange

Where memories limits walk the line,
and crossed—exceed our range

(St. David’s Pennsylvania: April, 2021)

Rising thru the Homeland
     with memories of no regret,
Think of the magic
     in the people I have met.
Many-fold with eyes that shine
Enthusiatically brilliant,
As they look in mine.

Carrie Mattison

An agent on an assigned order,
Suffered from bipolar disorder,
Her sister helped with the drug,
Gave an adversary a hug,
Which led to a bond and tie wonder.

Spartan Boy

Lives in my homeland
He fights not the enemy,
but himself in the mirror.
The mirror eternally strong,
will never break into pieces

One day Spartan boy will tire,
and collapse due to fatigue.
and accumulated impiety

Premium Member The Desperate Garden

A blooming garden is overflowing.
With frayed flowers bearing hope. 
The heart flags of their homeland, 
patches sewn to worn thin dreams.
Crawling for a border made of oil and honey.
Even the most noble garden has some weeds...

Disney Princess

I look in the mirror
and what do I see?
But a pretty face looking back at me
A few more days
and I'll be out of my teens
Still no one standing next to me
One more month
to take another spin
or to find a Prince in my own homeland

Africa

Normandy

There
on the beaches
lay a thousand dreams.

There
in the fields
stand a thousand stones.

There
in the skies
soar a thousand souls.

There
in the homeland
weep a thousand hearts.

There
for the future
sleep a thousand pasts.

Just Question

Just Question

A woman without children.
An elderly did not find haven.
An orphan with no joy.
People living outside their homeland.
A life Without mothers.
A friends without loyalty.
A family with no connection.
- Is it just a disappointment?

Our Father

Our father was full of love
For all the nation
For his beautiful children
He walked through the field full of heather
With meadow so wild.

He reflected up on truth
Rather than receiving an helping hand
Guided by his own destiny
In his homeland.

Emigration

Exiled from my homeland,
Excited and scared, I
Entered a new country.
Expressing myself in
English, I struggle with
Emotions and poems,
Ever yearning for home.

Emigration

Nightfall,
Darkness permeates,
Stars are dispersed around, 
The moon comes out of its closet,
It stands on its podium in a full glow,
We hear the sounds of the night beings,
As we take our journey,
To a homeland,
Nightfall.

so proud of your country
were taught to honor others
mark of an adult

stand with great pride
no matter how big or small
all are one, do admire

how small you become
joke not of others homeland
smallness, just derides

Mayon Volcano

While kiss by the clouds
     Perfect cone remains sober
           Fury hides beneath



















The subject is one of the active volcanoes
in my homeland, Philippines.  Proud to be 
one of the nominees in the race for
7 Wonders of Nature :)
