Poems for Rizal
LAONG LAAN
BY WILFREDO RIVERA III
LAONG LAAN
BY WILFREDO RIVERA III
He is the greatest Philippine hero
ever to have lived and existed.
The wounded ink was poured,
to unlock many souls.
​
​
​
​
He was incredibly wise.
He wrote stories and novels,
and uncovered reality.
​
​
​
​
He is a hero.
He had pen and paper,
And rescued his countrymen,
who were weeping.
ROMANTIC HERO
BY Erica Calderon
BY ERICA CALDERON
A child, a brother, and a hero he is
He who deserves a thousands of kiss
A student, a friend, a lover of eleven
And the last of his love has the surname Bracken
ROMANTIC HERO
He’s had the charm,
the knowledge, the wit
His love life has been plenty
but was never easy
He was a fine man,
equipped with grit
He loved his country and
all his lady
But his fate became
tricky, unfortunately
His love life should be known
today and tomorrow
He is the son of Teodora and Francisco
He is Jose Rizal, the romantic hero.
BITTER
SWEET
BY PATRICIA BOLIMA
He arrives at an unfamiliar place
His mind, occupied by a beautiful face
The heels of his shoes clicks as he fasten up the pace
Eagerly to write a letter for a woman he could no longer embrace
Time flies and he receives a letter
A message with words tastes so bitter
Tears forms in his eyes and dropped
with a splatter
She was to be wed
to someone better
They were destined to have a cruel fate
But they did not bear
their hearts with hate
Their love for each other did not have a chance to go further
For they were fated to meet but are not destined to be together.
