a single flower in a field
is perfectly crafted
its petals in geometric pattern
its leaves absorb light
its stem so thin but makes it stand

if i know anything else that is perfect,
it's you

the handsome moon illuminates
two lovers sitting by the shore
they know the moon isn't smooth
it is full of craters and scars
yet they look so much at the moon
more than what is in the ground

if i know someone that is as handsome as the moon,
it's you

a little girl cherishes
the love she had received today
she was given three pesos
by her father who had just come home
from selling quail eggs and balut

i know she wasn't just happy about the coins in her hand
but she had been patiently waiting for her father to come home
and lift her up in his arms

if i know of a love that is enoughh
like that of the father and the child,
it's you

i love you
