For the earthquake stricken people in Mindanao ×A collaboration with Maia Padua..another published author and poet..
As the wrath of the earth Swipes us off-guard Our own works knelled down Its debris scattered all around Roars from beneath unearthed Deafening the already deaf ones Once so numb by her cry and her lullaby
In the midst of rustling winds and roaring sounds so frightening Cries of men rippling Wondering why such wrath whipped us all the rage we cannot fathom why Had led us back to what we are from nothing...nothing
We light this candle of hope Praying that your tears will be gone Your broken heart will be whole Faith and faith alone withstand Like a flame of lighted candle Flew to where the breeze would go May it bring hope to everyone Lifting and bring their hearts afire
If only we can sing a song for you A song to keep you going A song of hope not fear A song of faith to bear Keeping the faith burning..burning
