MY BOUGAINVILLEA

-

 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 simple blossom of flowers,

We can learn the lessons of life and love.

GARDEN WHISPERS

As I patiently wait for flowers to bloom, I ponder the whispers of my garden’s womb.   As the breeze blares and touches my brown skin I feel the gentle caress where new dreams begin   New plants mirror generations to come; tree shadows shield us from the scorching sun.   Withered leaves remind me, soft and kind, All things pass with time, let's hold that  in mind.   White hibiscus buds reach toward the skies, a beacon of hope, a promise that never lies.   Sunlight graciously infuses life, Flowers burst forth with quiet pride. Rain becomes their faithful friend, nurturing soil, helping some to mend   Tall plants shelter and shadow the young ones, They're small, yet they stand where glory runs.   Orange bougainvillea starts to appear, dangling to the ground, like my spirit blossoms bright, wild and round.   Red blooms guard my welcoming entrance, showing strong and blissful abundance.   These simple sights feed my vibrant glee As I savored...

MY GRACIOUS PEN

 My gracious pen... As my pen sways like a whirling dervish Dances with my heart and spirit that cherish It gives breath to my candid plume color Rejuvenates my core in a dainty glamor. Bestrewing love to my modest thought Relishing peace and love throughout My pen is much mightier than a sword. It chooses words that glitter like gold. It has a ton of magical and wondrous gleams. With so much tenderness, it gently glistens. With the sobriety of my plume, my pen is merry As it breathes kindness, it's getting lovely My pen softens the enemy's insensitive heart It mellows agonies, torments, and wrath It fills compassion with disdained emotions. Till it melts from hatred to love sensation My pen is calm as it recedes selfishness It can appease tempers and distresses  The blades of its sword spark and glint I wish its enduring luster will last till then When its sharpness would be blunted. Feebleness comes from its master's head. But with my passion that is so intense In peace a...

MALUIBING BULAN UG MGA BITUON

 Napakagandang tula! Kindly take time to read! MALU-IBONG BULAN  UG MGA BITOON Sinulat ni Jeffrey Cejero  Gihubad  sa Binisaya ni Helen Sarita   Sa wala pa  manamilit ang adlaw sa kasadpan, iya akong giagak paingon sa  mabulukong mga panganod nga nakighinalukay sa asul ug malakristal nga dagat. Iyang gipatagamtam kanaku ang bugnaw nga huyuhoy sa hangin ug iyang gipatu-ang ang kasingkasing kong puno sa kabalisa samtang naglumba-ay pagdapya ang mga balod pagpaduol kanako haron hapyoron ako  sa ilang gugma Sa una pa lamang pagpa-ak sa kangitngit nakita ko pa ang Bulan nga ningkaway kanako nga sama nga nakighinabi nga dili naku maha-aguman ang kangitngit sa gabii  Ug sa wala magdugay ning-abot usab ang bituon nga ningsa-ad kanako nga himoon nilang mabulukon ang kalangitan haron dili mahimong masulub-on ang akong kalibutan Apan samtang nagadaloy sa sapa ang tubig, ang Dama de Noche wala bati-a ug kakapoy ug walay pu-as paghatag sa iyang alimy...
