Two Poems from our Family Poetry Collection

 
 
IT ALL CAME TO BE
   
Author: Imelda Silao
   
Poem:
IT ALL CAME TO BE
   
  Looking back my yesteryears… There are so many changes in life that I have made…
I was so innocent to see and understand the real world that I’m in…
When I was yet young… as a child, I have so many questions in my mind…

Then I’ve grown to my teenage years…
By and by, I grasp at each of my experiences in life and slowly tried to understand its
Meaning… Although I’ve learned but still there are a lot of questions in my mind
Left unanswered…

But no matter what, my life continues to travel and journey to the real world…
Searching for that goal and purpose of my existence here on earth…
As I look up to my elders, in keen observation, I’ve gathered lessons and ideas…
Study and pick-up pieces of Life’s unending puzzle…Then reconnect…

What is life all about? Is it all about dreams and fulfillment only? Or there’s more?
Then I came to the next chapter in my life…
Found my one and only love… bore children of my own… Learn to Love and Care…
For my family’s welfare…
Live and struggle each day’s toil… Earn a living and save for the future…
But where do I go from here?

At this point in time… I recalled the past…How did I gone thru it?..
Is it worth my life now? In a way, there is.. but not enough, I thought…
I still have dreams to fulfill and I know it’s not easy… I know there is still a long
Way to go…and I need wings to soar a bit higher…
I thought of how I’m going to make it, when in reality it is so hard…
Can I still find a way to realize my goals?

But as I look back and meditate…, I found myself in front of a mirror…
Staring my very own self,… A voice from within my soul whispered in my ears…
“Fear not of the future… For I am with you… All you have to do is have Faith in yourself and above all Have Faith in Me…”

Then I realized it was God who whispered to me… He has always been with me ever since…And I only have to feel him in order to realize that only God is the source of my Faith and if I trust in him, Fulfillment is at hand…

A Real Virtue
   
Author: Sarahjane Bennett
   
Poem: A Real Virtue
   

Lost in a swirl of others who are lost, blaming their neighbor-seeking the stableness they believe that neighbor dances upon.
Conviced that they are drowned out by their search for individuality.

Surfacing into an invisible bubble of their future world. A world so complicated, yet so sought for. A world so dazzling it casts your heart's true wants into its lime light. A world that seems so perfect, that you are conviced you are diving upward, but in reality you are tumbling down hill as your safe past fades into the distance.

A world that poisons your nervous system into lying to your brain. Telling your brain that your heart is bliss.

But your heart is aching for home soil, of home and the life you WERE emersed in - the life you wasted trying to surface into the world that causes your nerves to lie.

Patience is not a virtue, home is.
