Bait Fish

Isn't that fish called 
Bunkers, it's bait fish
To some it is bait
For most of us here 
In the Philippines 
It's called Breakfast
Lunch and Dinner 
For a few days.

Sweet Melody

It flutters to the piano
As you enter the room
Lands on the ivory
And plays your sweet. slow melody

Infidelity - Naani Poem

Infidelity (Naani Form)

When Love, in mercurial flight forsakes
The heart that it once cherished
Tears that flow leave
Vows and rings...tarnished.

Looming Moon

I always Fascinated by moon
And always imagine it by noon. 
Loving you by tune
Remembering it by loom,
And by the dawn wishing to be here soon
Every Dancing scripted rune
Reminds the piece of you.

Premium Member Topical Poem

Never have I seen trouble as deep as 
The catastrophe in Tamaulipas.
I chanced on a 6-kilometer crack -
A lot of information to unpack.
If you fall into the crack, it seems,
You'll be in China or the Philippines.
I tell you straight, put it on the level -
It is either drainage or the devil.

My Reason

I turn off the alarm.
6 o'clock.
Tired shoulders.
Stomach grumbling.
I turn over on the bed.
Long day ahead.
Deadlines, backlog.
You enter our room, my heart skips a beat.
You...
You.

I smile,
Stretch my arms,
And get up.

Its More Fun In the Philippines

Hooray! to the land of pearl.
Surrounded by oceans and seas
To travel in water in so free
As if you touch the sky in the deep blue sea.

Where else you can you can see this gift from heaven 
Nothing else but in the Philippines 
The land of Rizal, the land of pearl, the land of beauty,
Only blind can’t see.
