Noel Tupan was born in Iloilo, Philippines. He was fond of reading poetry books when he was in high school and started to seriously write short poems when he was in college. Started his poetry blog (in blogspot) in 2007.
I always ponder,
about the coming years,
and our life ahead.
Would you still be the same,
...
I will go home now, my dear
After a day of sweat and fear
After a day of fatigue and hunger
After a deafening noise of blasts and flare
...
Have I told you about yesterday? ,
of the lush green mountains I saw,
the thick virgin forest,
the flock of birds that dwell on the trees.
...
The deafening sound of applause,
the roaring chants in unison.
The audience's yell on every kick,
rejoice heard on every goal made.
...
At times,
there’s tranquility,
serenity
of the surroundings
...
