Bernard F. Asuncion Hero Poems

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.
...

Shadows fall too deep,
Empty crown, a silent plea,
Justice sleeps below.
...

GI Joe, with his muscles so tight,
Tried to parachute down in the night.
His 'chute got all tangled,
His landing was mangled,
...

Hero
Helpful, Strong
Striving, Battling, Winning
