What is it with Mornings


What is it with Mornings
by Alan D. R.de Luzuriaga
August 26, 1993


What is it with mornings

The fresh air and the slow radiance

Green leaves and purple petals

reaching out to the heavens

Their soul thirstily

Wanting, Waiting

For that unseen spirit

Sprinkling life to a new day


What is it with mornings

That makes your eyes shimmer

With renewed anticipation

To sing with the birds

To roar with the mighty engines of man

As they rise from their slumber

To sweep the dust

Of yesterday

And trod

The newly washed path

Of today


What is it with mornings

That makes your eyes glimmer

At times with tears

Not of joy

For the beauty that is the morning

Makes you wonder

On what is to be

For the rest of the day

That can match its splendor

To keep our hearts moving

Our soul erupting

Rapture Eternal


Longer Than the Future


Longer Than the Future

Groping in the emptiness

Of none-life

Seeking

Hoping

Feeling

What is there

To live for

What is there

To die for


We have

The Future

We have

The Life

To live

Or to waste


A friendly reply

Not to worry

For we shall solve all

All these problems

All in the future


I continue

And say

And pray

Hopefully,we

Can mend our wrongs

Longer

Longer than the Future

Total Eclipse - Jovy de la Paz

Total Eclipse

by Jovy de la Paz


I govern the day; I romance the night

I empower the intellect; I inspire their arts

I am their source; I am their muse

I am your reason; I am your reflection

You are my heart; You are my crown

We never meet; Our shadows kiss

I rise; I depart



The mathematics of our game

Constant sum of fire and rain

Caught in between aerial space

Ushers the rise and fall of empires

Devouring sweet stolen moments

Immortalizing reason and emotion

On new leaves of undying poetry

Never to meet but in discreet

Shadows of the sun and the moon

To rise and soon to depart

Into the huge trembling stage

Of the unknown transformation

CRUMPLED



CRUMPLED
Alan D. R.de Luzuriaga
(May 8, 1993 – Given to my Mom on Mother's Day of 1993)


Crumpled in a womb of warmth
Gentle beats of a caring heart
A cry of pain, a gasp of blind life
A journey of uncertainty

Crumpled in a womb of mystery
The beats and caresses unceasing
A cry of pain, a gasp of a life gone blind
A journey of hope
