I'd like to let my soul slumber for a while, My body seeks the comfort of rest. I turn my thoughts away from noise and strife, Wishing my spirit to be tranquil and blessed.   May you understand the depth of my being, As it matures like a silent wind. It is a magic sedative that soaks my mind, Penetrating deep within.   The residue of chaos, the shadows of past, Sometimes made me feel so futile and abhor. Yet look! A wonderful art was born, Created from what I endured.   The remnants of ashes from my uncertain past now allow my soul to dream and trust, hoping and believing this peace will remain, and in God's grace, forever stay, not in vain.   I just love to be mindful with my compassion  My love intensely flows within my heart. I only want to flow in Your passion, And let Your love be my work of art.

When I am silent, it isn't pride, but love. If I distance myself, it isn't avoiding, but respect.   And so are you, as mute as I am, Our feelings are mutual ever since.   Love is always present between two of us, Yet we understand it will crush us.   If I talk to myself alone, In the middle of my missing moment, I flare my strength. I know it is meant.   I only close my eyes, Savoring the pain with a smile.   Though my tears stream in silence. Yes, we lost each other. Yet, we gain.   We became losers in the world of romance, But our triumph exalts as though tears were bitter.   If it happens, the time set us free. I will choose you and you again.   I am victorious. I am winning. So our souls are. ME

I want to be your light in this darkness, so you will know you are not alone in feeling empty. For I myself am walking this difficult path too, trying to obey what must be obeyed.   I am sacrificing myself, not just for our love, but for all whose lives are connected to us. I share my words not to ignite desire or temptation, nor to ask you to make a move or change anything.   I do this simply to express what is real inside. I know these passages will heal our wounds, medicine for two souls who love so deeply, yet are bound by reasons we cannot break.   I am free in this world, I can go anywhere, but my heart is not free yet. It still belongs to the one I loved before, and this feeling is unstoppable.   Yes, I am proud of myself. Because I am true, I am real. I love you without any big reason, but my heart shouts for you... now and forevermore.

It is a taste of heaven as we listen to the Good News. We shared with one another as we opened our hearts. Perhaps we understood it differently at first, but there was innate goodness in our souls that received it.   We went deeper, beyond surface thoughts. We understood that the Good News is received by a heart so pure, digesting every truth within our very being.   It is a taste of heaven to realize that God is everywhere, and He loves us without condition no matter how we understand and execute His Mightiness.   It is not just the joy of miracles that lifts us from anger, disappointment and misery brought by this world, It is a continuous journey of love and faith. It is the hope that we foresee within our hearts.   It is a taste of heaven, even while we still carry the heavy stones of this world, things that attract us and tempt us with their shining brilliance.   But the real, incomparable, and extraordinary joy is finding ourselves...   Dwelling in th...

When the sun goes down, It is time to appear. With bold presence I stand, For I am not here in vain, nor anywhere for nothing.   I walk my talk, I am open with my words. For many are seeking delight, And one of those was me, seeking the light.   Inhibition is gone, Fear is removed. I no longer hold back my little brilliance, Nor let reluctance steal my radiance   For the Almighty One does not speak from empty air, He fashions a mouth and gives a voice to share.   So let it flow, I let love go even more, though Humbly through and through. ~ME Helen A. Sarita

Now that we have grown in all aspects of life, we need to show our emotions authentically, letting people understand the depth of who we are. We must show our stance and how we truly react to things.   We need to be burning inside! We need to fight our weaknesses and be sufficed with our altruistic side! We need to be contagious like a flame spreading in every direction! Like an eagle spirit in action  Our vagueness won't help clarify things.  Our coldness is a passive reaction that will never convince anyone.  Therefore, ambiguity must be set aside.   Even the reluctance of our spirit, we will pave through it. We will go exactly where destiny and the Spirit want us to be.   Even if we are scared, even if we are doubtful or hesitant... we must walk unveiled and true. Yes, there may be fear, but the truth will always set us free. The truth will shine through our lives!   Because ambiguity in our steps is futile. Being nonchalant kept us stuck. But now, ...

When the fascinating and mystic of the galaxy flashes my thoughts, it means another altruistic passage to behold.   The blossoms appear and visible, and another aroma witnesses them all.   Now, I can smell what the future brings through the dreams of the night and the ocean thrills.   Ready to take my every step as the wave of wisdom paves me to the gracious valleys,   I dance through the mystic plateau, as I send myself to the wondrous cliff.   Wonders of nature made me fearless and my heart lovely, exhilarates. ~ME HelenSarita 

 Before, when words popped up in my mind, I had to rush and look for a pen, to write them down immediately, so they would not be forgotten again.   But now, that I am occupied by the fast pace of life  And my mind is fleeting with plenty of concern, I can simply record my voice, and set it aside as my own choice. I can check it later, I can polish it in my own free time. Where my soul is free, and my spirit whispers words   Then, upon a blank paper, Which is ready to conceive,  I poured my spirit with sapience to leave Inspired by the wisdom God gave.   As it flows into the cosmos, sprinkling sacredness upon the tiny yet precious souls.   You are a source of strength and eagerness, to purify a life and to make wonderful steps.   I know we deeply missed the things that once locked us.   But as we journey on, I know there will be time for our souls to flourish more beautiful.   This is what I sought for a long time, to be almost perfectly ...

Behold the vessels that cross the waters, carrying cars and passengers to another island.   How magnificent is their greatness, bearing big trucks and heavy loads with strength.   It may seem just a simple, ordinary scenery, yet when you look deeper, meaning unfolds so clearly.   Some travel merely to observe, while others journey for important matters to serve.   I contemplate how many times I have crossed from this island to another.   This is why I consider myself so blessed.   It may be tiring, it may consume so much energy. To others, it is indeed a heavy way.   But no matter how hard it is, it is me crossing from here to there in wonderful and blissful peace.   Enjoy the delay. Enjoy the fresh air amidst the sea.   Enjoy the sound of the vessel. Its roar is magnificent, a music that carries your soul away to travel.  ~ME HelenSarita 

Let me remain unknown to the world. No need to fuss, nor need to boast.   I am just an instrument used by the Spirit.   I try to believe what I have said, in the vastness of the sky beneath.   I don't need to become famous. I even declined those who invited me to say my words.   I have been through that path, but now I wish to iron out my own cost.   I don't need to be known by many.   I am just a silent whisper of a firm tree, where the Spirit lives peacefully, observing people intensely. ~ME HelenSarita 

 When my words travel with the air, they reach many souls somewhere.   They can smell its fascinating aroma, opening their spirit to glow like a living mantra.   I feel poetry bridges many souls that seek delight.   The source once hidden in oblivion, now shines clearly in sight.   As it blares with the wind of love and grace, passing through the oceans and the vastness of the sky.   There is a Supreme Force that breaks itself into pieces, so it may be spent and received by the tiny souls that belong to this earth.   Let me remain unknown to the world, but let me leave with grace to behold.   Through poetry that dances along the cosmos,   It is the magic that graces this wonderful earth to across. ~ME HelenSarita 

I do not want to think of anything else, but these words I say.   This is the shout of my soul, the command of my spirit.   To believe that for all things, we need to lay our gratitude.   Even the hardest things can be resolved, they become but a tiny dot, when God lays His hand and lets you feel His provision and love    I thank God for knowing Him more deeply. I thank God that before I lay down to slumber, He is my refuge and my rest.   And I am grateful indeed, that when I wake up in the daybreak, He is there. The only One on whom I can lean.   A person with faith possesses absolute richness. For even above troubled waters, You feel your best.   No one can ever provide nor help but this only God, whose love remains even after death. ~ME HelenSarita 

Striving the strife, I cannot deny, it is my pride, a stronghold high.   It makes us determined, it makes us persevere, for success is never a sweet and easy road to bear.   When you go home drained and spent, it is for the love you gave and the work you represent.   You know you have done your part, even when the road is hard.   No time to sigh, but take it kindly, step with toes high, walking proudly.   Because you did it successfully!   It is a heavy worry for some to take, but it is triumph for the wise and great.   A smile is the testament of resilience true, thoughtful words are proof of altruism in you.   Hug me well, hug me tight, hold me close, everything is right.   Dearest upon the road, continue to BESEECH, Divine energy will console and teach.   Everything will be in control, as you give yourself freely, yet, never forget to mind your soul,  as it moved forward to its destiny.  ~ME Helen Sarita 

Be the shoulder I can lean on, combat with me in every challenge.   God is with us. Let me believe that all will be well.   I will never surrender. I will hold fast to my faith.   Take away every desire of my heart, cleanse me from all longing.   Let us hold hands together, fighting through the wilderness.   We make the impossible possible, so that confused souls may find certainty, and believe in the True and Real Spirit, the Holy and Immortal One who walks beside us.   Thank you, my Conscience. Thank you, my Mentor. Thank you, my Reflection.   Thank you for believing in me. You are my Faith. You are my Strength.   We walk together with faith indelible, firm and unshakable, which no one can ever twist. ME Helen Sarita 

A fresh morning smile breaks through the daybreak, visioning the day that flows slightly quick.   Combat every challenge with a heart sincere and pure, surely you shall triumph and serene, I am pretty sure.   The morning arrives, cool and divine, shaping my smiles authentic and fine.   Wondrous things unfold this very day, they come without delay, answering my pleas earnestly.   Thank You for granting rest unto my soul. Through deep supplication and devotion whole,   My prayers have risen and Your ear has heard. You are the Healer of every wound I suffered.   I too may be a healing and one of the instruments, a vessel of grace where Your love begins.   I am but a channel, blessings to appear. I care not if nothing is left for me, as long as I am clear.   This is what my spirit wants me to bear. It is wisdom from a tree of life, climbing like a vine full of wonder.   Abundance flows through me, a sacred stream, to answer the hopes of those who...

As I sit here in the twilight, I hear only the blaring breeze, swaying the leaves in different directions.   I cherish this sound of nature. I feel I am in a sacred realm, a place where everyone dreams to be.   It whispers hope to my soul. It brings calmness to my mind, clearing away everything unnecessary.   I detach myself from uncertainties. I turn my back on worries and weariness.   I am grateful for the days ahead and for the peaceful nights to come.   I await the gracious years waiting for me, where I shall meet many souls, speak to their hearts, and leave a paramount legacy. Even with empty hands, I am rich within.   And I will be remembered...   AS THE ME Helen A. Sarita

Going home, I head to the chair in the garden, leaning my back, comforting the pain after facing enormous challenges.   There was so much work to do during the day, and I went home as the darkness of evening fell.   Now, I gaze at the waving leaves, and direct my sight to the graceful clouds.   It is good to talk alone. It is good to utter words and treasure this beautiful, sweet pain that I have gained.   I know something good is about to happen.   It is good that I speak with myself, smiling at the sky, and feeling blessed because I am able to tell my narrative.   Though no one else listens, my blossoming flowers do.   I am blessed that I can express. I am blessed I can tell my tales, unlike others who stay quiet, and only feel the pain within, and sometimes even complain. ME Helen Sarita 

Be authentic. Be genuine. Be the fountain whence all smiles derive.   Be verdant, be tranquil. Be crimson, be love.   Be refined, be vibrant, be life itself. Be the mirror of souls who cherish peace and joy.   Be the forest. Be that enchanting haven all desire to seek.   Be the beautiful valley that graces the eyes of many. 🏞️   Be the smile of your own city 😊 and the Queen of your kingdom. 👑   Be the pearl of your nation 🇵🇭 and the gem of the world. 💎🌍   Reveal thy grace to feast their vision. Unfold thy wonders to soothe their spirits.   Remain true to thyself, so that the world may never forget the beauty thou hast bestowed.   Be whole, and be a healer, for thy presence is the comfort everyone needs. Be a comfort to all. Be positive and be a light. Even though your spirit is thriving and parched within, you still shine brightly. Helen A. Sarita

Imagine we are in the forest, only two of us, enjoying the paradise, nature, and pure love.   If immortals could see us, they would truly appreciate. They would witness intimacy shining in our eyes. They would adore what mortals can do — the physical desire, the connection of souls, and the deep satisfaction of being loved.   Let your heart shout with joy! Feel this love, unexplainable and deep. It flows from the very core of our being.   There is no sin. There is no judgment for lovers who are lost in love, or too much in love.   God gives us desire. God gave us human hearts. People may judge, but NEVER GOD.   We are free from the rules, free from the world, yet bound forever by our intimacy and love — a feeling we will carry UNTIL WE BREATHE OUR LAST. ~ ME Helen Sarita 

Free spirit is when you open your heart and let your spirit explore to every nook and corner of the world.  That even if you're just staying in a very unique realm, wherever you are at, your spirit travels, observing every step people take, continuing learning the wondrous of things. Claiming that without God you can never achieve the things you never expected. You can have free spirit when you allow your heart to soar to the altitude and listen to the grievance of the universe. That you will take a move not just to merely listen, but to bring a water of solutions to the parched nations. Free spirit is when you value the liberty and do not allow someone to hold your dignity. Because you are full of wonders and full of gratitude. You are a spirit that sings freely, carrying the softness and kindness of the Lord. ~ ME Helen A Sarita 

 🌟 LET US AGE GRACEFULLY 🌟   Let us age gracefully and leave a beautiful legacy.   We have learned so many things in life. Darlings, that is the greatest gift we could ever find. 💝   As we journey in this wonderful universe, our perspectives may contradict each other's verse.   Sometimes our thoughts are not aligned, no matter how we want to make them bind. 🤝   But still, we can create very altruistic lines. We have an endowment that glitters for a lifetime. ✨   Let not our souls slumber for long. Let us not waste time for unworthy reasons.   Be the instrument to bridge broken ties, and watch our spirits take their rise.   Kindness is warmth and fortitude, It is a glorious and gracious gratitude.   Reaching to the moon and back, Love, and let no barriers be stuck.   Imperfections make us real humans, but our hearts are proven to be wonderful ones,   encapsulating the goal of the human race. Let us make it with a sunshine gl...

My back aches with sweet pain Never do I lose, but rather gain A message from my inner core Conveyed by this painting I adore   Colored mountains grace this space Tranquil, wonderful, and full of grace Calm waters smile in abundant bliss Warm my heart with a sealed kiss   My hands are tired, yet blessed indeed For beautiful nature I can plant and seed With mystical treasure bestowed on me A gift from the good Lord above, so free ~ME Helen Sarita  

When my art speaks, it says nothing but love, it smiles to your heart, red as blood,   silence yet fierce, ready to whisper by the language of the universe, the hues smile uniquely, know no bounds, their ubiquity, priceless and magical, mazeless and mystical, brave and altruistic, wisdom couldn't be denied. ~ME Helen A. Sarita 

Tranquil scenery sufficed through my longing, waiting for hours to witness the sun to set. In the process, never waste the time as it rolls... as the shimmering shadow whispers the moon’s crest. The crimson hue of the western sky starts to appear, the tinted wave of the sea listens to its magic. Enigmatic beat of my heart makes its craze; I smile. I don’t want to think deep on this mystery... yet just let it be.   Deep emotion and wild imagination visited me as I long, deviating my thoughts to the ebb coming to the shore. Whilst people were busy with Christmas celebration, I am alone far away from home; as the sky outside turns gloom, I am hollow and blue, and my silent tears stream down. Yet this is life that blends with my maturity, it has to be embraced. I understand I am blessed and lucky. I am a stellar with wings that soars tenaciously; it’s Christmas that dwells in my heart, come what may. ~ME HelenSarita

 A Poem For You, Boy   You haven't seen me ever in your life holding a paintbrush, You had no idea that I can express through color blush; If you had seen me playing with plenty hues over the plain canvas, You would be my top fan, shouting on the varicolored silent grass. ME Helen A. Sarita

 My Bougainvillea   In my garden, I see my flowers blooming, Not so full, but enough to soothe my eyes. They are Bougainvillea with different colors— Dark pink and light pink, mixed together so nicely.   Some branches reach high up to the sky, Others dangling and touching the ground. But whether they are high or low, They all give beauty and make my garden glow.   Just like people I know in life, Some stand tall and proud, Some are humble and quiet. But we need them all to see the beauty.   Life is not always smooth and easy. There are challenges and people who test us. But these things make us strong, And make us eager to prove that they can be wrong.   True wisdom is not just from four corners of our classrooms, But it comes from God, it is spiritual and deep. He lets us see meaning in simple things, And helps us understand our lives' beautiful story.   We must be observant, we must ponder deeply And connect everything to our souls. Because even in s...

 Illusions...   Be a queen, smile with a full bless.   Be a queen with pure heart that everyone feels light to be with you.   They feel you are you. They feel you as their comfort.   Your way of speak is like a song to their souls. You are a queen because your eyes speaks a lot of meaningful words.   You are a queen because people find you like a home. They love to lean your shoulder.   Your voice is like a magic of angels. Your thoughts carry the beauty of the world.   And you walk like you own a beautiful kingdom.. ~ME Helen A. Sarita

I would like to say something about what I feel right now, connected to my garden. I don't know if it will become a poem, an essay, or just a little story. But here it is, impromptu, straight from my heart.   I look around the whole area, every corner of my garden, and I am grateful for the gray sky that I am gazing up at right now. It is a message that the day is about to end, and the night will come.   I see this house, which is a home. I love it to be filled with my children and also my grandchildren. I remember when they were small, and now they are grown up, they are now teenagers! It makes me so happy because I am not just a happy mom, but I am also a happy grandmother!   I love the green garden that surrounds me right now. Even with the scorching heat of the sun, they are still thriving to exist. They are fighting for life because they know that they are my joy, my delight.   It is silent here. It wraps my heart with so much contentment.   I love the dark...

You are a part of me. We journey together like leaves blowing in the valley of Paradise. 🍃🍃   We hear and sing the same song. Even though we are apart, our hearts feel each other’s call, even when we are alone.   I see you among the crowd. I smell your lovely aroma, though we are miles away apart. 🌸   You are cherished by day and night. Even in your absence, I can feel your presence near.   Because... You are the lyrics my soul sings. And your love is the music within my heart. 🎶❤️ ~ME HelenSarita 

Now I understand that to create a poem — I am not just writing, I am automatically reciting what my heart flows at the moment.   I realize that once you open your heart and see the beauty of the world, you can say so many things. Your thoughts flow like a river.   You don't need to think hard and force the words. It is just there, coming from your heart.   Ready to be composed. Ready to delight the world. Ready to speak to their hearts.   And more importantly, ready to give light and shine, flowing from your deepest core.   Ready to glow like a fountain in the wilderness, pure and natural. ~ME HelenSarita 

I have chosen a different path. From writing poetry, letting my grammar flow even with flaws, I poured my heart full of sincerity.   So that it will penetrate many hearts  Not for them to see the flow of my words, But to see the beauty of my soul, And the charisma of how I adjust myself to the world.   I am flexible. Ready to accept criticism. Ready to be judged. All these, I truly respect from my heart.   The humility that I carry lifts me up.   Even if I wanted to hide myself, it will naturally shine.   It does not need affirmation. It is simply who I am.   Smiling from within. Speaking with art. Glowing my heart. And feeding my soul. ~ME Helen Sarita

 Poetry belongs to art. There is a technique on how to write it beautifully.   But my voice today flows directly from my heart. And here it says: Do not be mindful of writing it perfectly, because perfection hinders your flow. It will stop the cascades of your soul.   Just be YOU in doing things and expressing yourself.   Let it be YOU who conquers judgmental eyes. Let that be you to shine more than anyone else.   YOUR LIGHT IS STRONGER THAN THEIR OPINIONS!    Because when they judge you, they will also wonder: "How can she write that simply yet full of light"   They need their ink to sway gracefully... But you... you just simply be ME Dance like a whirling dervish.    The most beautiful thing, and the most beautiful route, is to follow the command of your soul generously spared with you by time. ~ME Helen A Sarita 

This is Filipino Poets and Blossoms, where we all bloom together. A beautiful shelter for poets.   Once it was full of life. But I silenced myself for a long time. I rested in peace, contemplating and finding myself.   Yet some people wished for me to return. Since they know i own this beautiful abode.   I was just silent when things went wrong. I have nothing to prove and nothing to fight  I am just protecting my peace And I just love to love.   It is just a beautiful flaw that won't harm anyone's heart.   And I understand now... Silence is power. Power to conquer. Power to love. Power to be ME. ~ME Helen A Sarita 

Where are you, my dearest friends?   Come! Go out from your comfort shell Let us gather here again.   Let us celebrate the brightness of the world.   Let us celebrate our 5th anniversary with stories unfold Let no one divide us. Let us conquer negative vibes Let us refresh the beauty of love striking bold   As long as you feel it is beautiful to inspire... Don't hide your feelings inside    We  are needed here The world needs you clear The world is waiting for your sage Free yourself from a cage   Speak the beauty of your heart... And you will be heard YOU surely will be heart  Let's celebrate our shine Listen, laugh, and bind. HELEN SARITA 

  I claim this is my house. It was created during the pandemic.   I feel I have the authority to take care of this, even though I left this abode for quite a while.   But I can just come here, guided by experience and humanity.   I smile because I know who I really am.   You see, poetry isn't just being bold because you know how to write well. It is an expression of our soul, shining through our words.   We learn here. We made friends, and those friends are kept forever in our hearts.   I feel special. I am composed because I know what to spread: Only the goodness of time that has molded us to become better.   Yet I am simply back here right now to show my beautiful smile and showcase the love that we all feel within our hearts.   I will stay in this beautiful shelter With or without anyone with me As I can firmly stand   I love the stillness of my being. Standing strong behind the storm, whatever the weather may be.   Not affected ...
