Cynthia Buhain-baello Poems

Fear causes paralysis
Emotions are all numbed
Thoughts go may blank
As one becomes deaf and dumb.
...

Like a good medicine
It is the oil on a man's wagon
His sunshine in the rain
The breeze that blows his sail on.
...

Never expect the loss of one life
To cease the cause of any strife
Nor will the quick demise of one
Close the book and all is done
...

Don't ask about my past
I don't live there anymore
With God my life to bless
I got a new address.
...

I do not read to dissect a poem
It's not there for analysis
Although with insight, it can become
A good specimen for diagnosis.
...

Regal in blue green feathers
Spread like a giant royal fan
He swoons a peahen lady lover
And hopes to win her if he can.
...

In my alma mater, Santo Tomas
We had heard of a mysterious tale
Of a gentle, young Spanish friar who was
A sight that turned anyone very pale.
...

What is a friend?

One who stands with you
Through all the good and bad
...

We all had past regrets
But take a moment's pause
The pain we must forget
And the scars these may have caused.
...

In my nothingness, be glorified
For everything I have all come from You,

Remove the dross and foolish pride
...
