*a simple poem heartily dedicated to all my friends
and to Tina Benedicto and her friends (Taiwan)
...
How can I say I love you,
When every beat of my heart say no?
Every blink of my eyes says it's not you,
Every whisper of my mind deny it too,
...
Every birds' soulful song exalts our soul
Breeze is like God's touch, caressing
The dancing leaves tells the glory
The glory of God, the glory of His kingdom.

The coolness of the rain
...
Tomorrow maybe so uncertain
Maybe buried by today's shortcomings
Clouded with tremor and aloof tranquility
We stumble on the rotten ground
...
A mystique smile
Along with your deep set eyes
Gazing blankly, mystery lies.

Alas, time has flew swiftly
Leaving memories of our childhood days
Of what things to do and words to say
Those days of uncertainty
