Hero's Life Poem by Bernard F. Asuncion

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.

P-hilippine greatest hero's life
R-emains inside the people's heart;
O-ur freedom is truly enjoyed
T-ill the whole wide world falls apart.
A-n instrument he bravely used
C-ompleting his goal was a pen;
I-t had made a big difference
O-n the country neath the heaven.

R-emembering this doc's birthdate
I-s forgetting the daily strife;
Z-one of pure nationalism
A-ims to share the hype hero's
L-ife.
