Meggie Gultiano Poems

You walked as fast as you could
Bringing with you some food to partake
Life is difficult, you have to make do
With the provisions the nuns have provided
...

My poetry journey is nothing and nowhere to go
Without leaving a word or two
I need a companion along the way
With you in my thoughts each day
...

A little fun keeps you young;
A little laughter keeps you bright.
...

A Mother's Love

Nowhere will i find a love like a mother's love
Who did her best, to look her best
...

My hands are folded as i bow down and pray
My expectant heart is waiting for you to say
Go in peace, rise my child, don't worry
I will be here for you till eternity
...

(A collab write with Kayte, a fellow poet)

We're going to ride the Ferris Wheel of Life
And when it gets to the top,
...

What has friendship got to do in times of need?
A thousand reasons perhaps for one to see
Someone in collaboration with unlikely times...,
...

A Reason And A Purpose

Our life's journey here on earth
has a reason and a purpose
...

I am a woman of faith
To a one true God
Depending, leaning and relying
I run to You in prayer
...

There's a place i know and love
A place called a poet's home
Pens and minds meet
Time, tears and gold were set.
...

I last saw you on frames
Worshiped by gods and demi-gods
Now, you walk once again
In my path for sympathy
...

Time eternal, time translucent of light
Time in our hands
Who would believe
That we were once borne in a lifetime
...

A beauty that comes from within
is a beauty age cannot wrinkle
Never distracted by a simple pimple
But by a radiant face of joy and pleasure
...

A hug each day
Will drive your blues away
To welcome you
or i hate to see you go
...

I promise
To give you a shoulder to lean on
A hand to guide your way
A whisper, a soft whisper
...

The moment you came into my life
I knew you were the one
to keep me so right
and as we began life’s journey
...

The Cry Of My Heart


Your hands are not too short
...

Comfort me..please. when i am sad and lonely
I need your strength to cover my weakness
I need your physical presence, your assurance
Your loving arms, when i am down and out
...

I sat.....wide-gazed..
Life's possibilities....
Not without the Cross
...

A special tribute for Karin Anderson

I treasured every moment we exchanged pleasantries
Your cool disposition, compassion and wisdom linger in my memories
...

The Best Poem Of Meggie Gultiano

The Last Embrace

You walked as fast as you could
Bringing with you some food to partake
Life is difficult, you have to make do
With the provisions the nuns have provided
For you and your husband to keep afloat each day

Keeping him company
Dependent, relying upon him
Feeling alone, lonely and neglected
Never the love and affection you expected
For many years your hidden heart embedded

He comfortably provided you
With a home you call your own
Tried working night and day
His illness had to wait, he must save
For rainy days, the future has to stay

In the dimly lit room he slept in peace
Never waking to see the dawn
Holding his hands, so frail and cold
You were alone — again, lonely and neglected


'You breathe as deeply as you can
You have the last embrace …'

Robert Howard (9/11/2008 10: 11: 00 AM) Guess what? Meggie's poem Faith, Hope and Laughter has been chosen as the text for a children's choral piece by the composer, Stephen Paulus. Mr. Paulus is a nationally recognized composer of orchestral, choral and operatic compositions. This is a great success and well deserved honor. PERSIAN NIGHTINGALE (3/2/2008 8: 01: 00 AM) she gives us her touching heart print, she is a poet indeed. marvin brato (1/7/2008 3: 19: 00 AM) Meggie is a girl friend in PH, she is a lady who sees the emotions of many and discern the innermost feelings of man.

Meggie: I like this poem. 'It is appointed unto men once to die...' Our precious time is a gift from God; every second represents an opportunity to love someone or something. Love is the thing, is it not because time runs out, but love never does. God is love. Richard Ilnicki
