8 ng Mayo
Dalawa sa mga malapit na kaibigan
siguradong may handaan
Birthday nila ngayon
isa nasa Holland
ang isa naman ay nasa Amerika
di sila magkakilala
pero di bale
pareho naman
sila ng araw ng kapanganakan
Isa ay Ilonga
maliit at maganda
yun isa naman ay Tagala
payat mukhang Espanola
American citizen si Edith
Dutch naman si Hermie
Isang amerikana
at isang Dutch na Pinay
matagal na nilisan ang bayan
si Hermie mas malimit kong makita
lagi akong may libreng meryenda
sa Hog Katherijn o sa bahay
nila sa Utrecht
Peace Zone kong tawagin
gawing laging may pagkain
may take home pa
ang mga bisita!
Si Edith naman
ay sos, ang layo ng lugar
kapiling ang mga bear sa Alaska
pero balita ko malimit siya
sa Florida
aha, senior citizen ka na ba
gusto ko siyang tanungin
sa susunod na emailan namin.

Hello Bituin. I see you are just beginning to link. I told some "diasporic" friends about you and your blog. They will visit.
Sayang naman ang gaganda ng yung mga piraso (pieces --haha) kung hindi mo maibahagi sa iba. At naku kay raming makaka--connect. Makikita nila ang sarili nila dito. Salamin ba.
What happened to your brother Vic? I hope he is getting better. I can imagine how you felt -- being so far away, feeling helpless.
Hey, I will go back for more. Panay ba Tagalog at patula? Ang galing mo naman.
Sige happy moms day. Are you a mom?
Dear Annamanila,
Thanks for the feedback, concern and referral to pinay bloggers in diaspora. Yes, I am beginning to find the missing links...was a bit hesitant before even with this blogging hobby and now I can not imagine my day without it...Thank God, my brother is out of the hospital now but has to undergo rehabilitation to recover his memory and speech after the head surgery due to his motorcycle accident. Keep in touch!
Oh. It was that serious. I am sorry. But take heart. He is young and bounceable. The therapies will work!!!!
Hi bituingmarikit,
Thanks for leaving the nice comment on my blog. I have tried to create a space where peace and beauty rule. Some days it's a reach but I persevere.
