Bernard F. Asuncion Poems

S-ince you were a child,
A-lmighty God did send
L-ove and care to your life
I-n His mercy without
...

L-ord, let me abound in love,
E-ven in hope and faith;
A-llow me, O dear God to trust in Your might so great.
...

J-ust let the years roll by,
E-arly nineteenth of June;
Z-one of age is there to make your life in tune.
...

J-une nineteenth, eighteen sixty-one,
O-ne Filipino was just born;
S-un had begun to brightly shine;
E-vening had yielded to the morn.
...

L-ove God with all your mind,
I-n truth and in spirit;
T-wentieth of June morn
O-pens as the shadows exit.
...

A-n ode to love
N-ever ever brings anger;
N-or it carries hatred
A-nd animosity anywhere.
...

R-ight before your view,
O-ne morn meets the skies;
S-un has started to smile,
E-arly beacon begins to rise.
...

B-irthday of the General Evangelist
I-s remembered by the brethren;
E-arly fifteenth of June,
N-ew dawn has just broken.
...

J-ust strive toward salvation,
O-n the third of June;
E-vade the devil's lair,
L-ies will die so soon.
...

A-n acrostic I have made
I-s sent to your heart;
R-apture is gladly attached,
A-s the sadness falls apart.
...
