my first published poem
Malindang Tribune publication, Oroquieta City Phils.1996
I am glad I am a mountain
Lording over smiling plain
Watching beyond Panguil Bay
Keep always peace I pray
I lead my arms where springs flow
Stream of life where my might shows
To Misamis Occidental whom my dear
The peaceful province I love so well
Faraway to my own foothills
Raise the tune of harvest home
From Misamisnon heart of thanks
Through wholesome rice fields come
The orient sun shall bow to me
His rays reflect from Iligan sea
When nights come governed by dark
The solitary sun hides at my back
To my dear bountiful land
I guard you safe peace and calm
Until now evilstorms can't overcome
Because of my great name, Mt. Malindang
