Sa Aking Kaibigan


Naghihintay siya sa liwasan. 
Nakaupo sa marungis na upuan sa kabila ng katirikan ng araw. 
Tiniis ang alikabok na nanggagaling sa maruming kapaligiran.
Ang takdang oras ay lumipas na. 
Tanda nito ang pagbilis ng
pagpintig ng pusong noong una nama'y ‘lub-dub, lub-dub’ lamang ang
pananalitang nalalaman.

Perlas ng Silangan


Ang ibig sa sariling baya'y pumipintig, kumakatha. Perlas ng Silangana'y huwag maging aba!  Mga likha mo'y kay tamis, kay tapang. Upang ang iyong tunay na kalayaan wagas nang pagkamtan.

The Astounding Mayon and the Intricate Hoyop-Hoyopan Cave

After an almost 12-hour butt-numbing bus ride to Legazpi, Albay from Manila, I felt the warm sun rays touching my skin, being occasionally filtered by the bus curtain.  I glanced at my mobile phone to check the time and was surprised it was only 5:30 AM.  Journeying Pinay is still sound asleep beside me. Envying her almost catatonic state, I tried stealing another hour or so of rest but failed to do so.  The impending meet-up with this magnificent creation is dawning on me. And after just a few more stops, she finally peeked beneath the morning clouds, as if saying, ‘Here I am!’

Up There In The Mountains

Up there in the mountains is another world.
A haven where I find solitude, 
Peace that only the highlands can bring.
One step closer to the skies, one step closer to heaven.
