CACTUS (Poem) By: Princess Jenn

 


What can I say?
In this large group
Of usually leafless plants
From family of cactaceae.

It grows in arid regions
Having thickly, fleshy
And often prickly stems
Amazing plant it seems



Cactus, that’s the name
It means a lot to me
It symbolizes survival,
Endurance and perseverance.

It continues to exist
In a dry and barren land
A great survivor, a good example
That’s the wonder of cactus..

           "Isang bala ka lang!" Ito ang sikat na linya ng yumaong Hari ng Action Movie na si Fernado Poe Jr. Isang bala na pwedeng kumitil  at sumira sa buhay ng tao.                        Nakatutuwang panoorin ang mga pelikula ni  FPJ  gamit ang isang bala. Kabaligtaran naman nito ang nangyari sa 56 na  taong gulang na si Gng. Gloria Ortinez na isang OFW. Dahil sa isang bala nabaliwala ang pagiging buhay na bayani niya sa loob ng 26 na taon.              Noong ika 25 ng Oktubre 2015, nakuhanan ng isang bala ang bagahe ni Ortinez habang nasa Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) na  bumago sa buhay niya.            Hindi na ligtas ang buhay ng mga pasahero sa NAIA dahil sa tinaguriang tanim-bala. Sino ba ang dapat sisihin?        ...

We were heading towards the ultimate adventure of our life: Baga Cave Adventure, which aim to find the waterfall, the only waterfall in the whole island of Talicud which is found inside the cave. Baga cave is found in the beautiful Island of Talicud, Island Garden City of Samal. Baga cave is really amazing! GOD perfectly made it. It feels like you go to other dimension when you’re inside the cave. We forgot that we were still in Talicud Island that time.   We found different rocks formation. What a beauty! It was wonderful. We also found the sanctuary of bats hiding inside the cave and waiting until its dark outside. Our ultimate goal was the falls inside the cave. We were all very hopeful to find it. My companions went there more than ten times but they did not make...

          I remember the time that I was so upset. I was in the darkest side of my life that I can see no light. All were dark. Then, I met this MAN in time that I was so down and I need someone who can talk to, someone I can lend on, someone who cares, someone who loves and gives me advices and words of wisdom. Suddenly, I see light. HE lights up my life. There was an unexplained feelings rippled through within me. From that moment, my personal relationship with HIM grows and develops.

I learned so much from HIM. His experiences and suffering on t...
