Cynthia Buhain-baello Poems

One cannot presume what the other is thinking
Nor can one give motives behind a poem
Unless in laser-like mind reading
One, like a Superman, by miracle has become.
...

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

Remove the dross and foolish pride
...

When it's my time to go
I want no sorrowed tears
Lived my life the best I know
And did not waste those years.
...

My soul is at rest in You,
For I am like a tree
planted beside streams of water,
bearing fruit in season.
...

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.
...

Love's a strong untouchable bond
That ties with cords of deep affection,
Ties that reach and go beyond
Time and distance or situations.
...

Constant
Pouring rain breaks
A hard rock to pieces
Pain, like rain, when poured out daily
...

Each day could be my last
So I resolve to be

Determined and steadfast
...

A dot on paper was analyzed
The lawyer viewed such evidence
For all legalities, scrutinized
Then ably wrote his structured defense.
...
