Gratitude to the World

My heart exults
for the kindness
generosity and goodness
from peoples of the world.

One world, one family
one world nation
sharing its goodness
to the Filipinos.

Filipinos rising up
showing its resiliency
at this hour of grief
and great devastation.


Everyone`s innate goodness
is bearing fruit
in this earth building
towards its healing.

O Mother Earth
our nurturing Universe
help us all
to take care of you.

I Rescue Me

Sometimes we think
that somebody shall come
to rescue us in our need
in a situation we don`t want.

Imagining someone will come
a woman/man mightier than us
with his/her power to lift us
at the end, I rescue myself. 

I rescue and lift up myself
with my own power
to get out/away from what I don`t need
what I don`t want, I rescue me.

tulong-tulong sa pagtatayo
ng bagong lahing Pilipino.

Pilipino na di napapagod
di susuko bagkus tumatapang
may ibayong lakas at sipag
tiyaga, pag-angat at pag-usad.





Embraced as One

When in a long lock down,  what is - becomes the  pattern  of a normal living. The space of time is long and open yet at the end of the day ...
