+ To Eisuke Poem by Jordan Legaspi

To Eisuke


The sky is bright
like the smile of a child;
the sea is wide, friend its true
like you, a gift and a blessing too
the air is warm and cold
like the tough of my folks
the earth is abundant
flowers bloom, grasses everywhere
and trees all day long praise'
oh God! great and wonderful
like no other but you alone
who gave me a friend
whose name in my memories remain.
