Ulysses Cabinatan Poems

Love can erase
The negative and hateful thoughts
...

Streaks of golden sunlight seep through the clouds
Giving an amber toppings
To the creamy chocolate brown plateau
Birds glide and frolic,
...

When seas dry up and turn to desert
and mountains turn to plains
When the sun forgets to shine
to paint an enchanting panoramic scene
...

Some roads are smooth
Some parts are rough
Bumps and holes
Are parts of the road called life
...

Though waking up alone from my bed
I feel good and at peace
I say a prayer
And a litany of thanksgiving
...

Simple Miracles
Like the changing color of the sun
From dusky orange, red, or golden yellow
...

The demons you’ve created,
From every sins you've made
Lurking in the darkness
Disguised as problems,
...

The sun may not be able
To penetrate
The opaqueness of a dark ocean depth
...

When petals wither,
and leaves fall,
and only thorn remains,
on the stem of the rose.
...

Youth, like the perianth
Its corollas degenerates
Its brightness fades
Time snatches its color
...
