Noel Horlanda Poems

They say:

In every man’s success,
There is a woman behind,
...

IImbricated clouds cloaks blasted sunset
Brings memories of yesteryears
Glorious past flashes back on set
Gives my first vision, tears
...

Pyro, Fuego, Fire,
It’s a power, a strength,
A source of light,
Luminescent as solar energy,
...

Red, white an’ blue
Three golden stars an’ a sun
Symbol of sovereignty
Seal of authority
...

Before the break of dawn each side prepared battle plans
in a bright bonfires burnt til’ sunrise,
Strategy drawn on sand not on a piece of paper,
indigenous warriors rallied about the Datu,
...

A young bird sat on tree branch,
looks here and there,
as if nothing to do
Confused whether to scream
...

Swing here, swing there
To and fro
Hold on tight altogether
We’re taking off bro?
...

Come into this world
Oh naked child
Cry not for mater’s love
Innocent you
...

Wiser now, ready to mount,
Draws sword, charges forward,
Marches in tantrum, nev'r look backward,
Aging cannot daunt
...

Perfumes starry night
wafts the air, florid scent
wraps round svelte neck
of a Lady’s knight
...
