Mine Filipino rose
I canst not thanketh thee enough;
For giving me a home.

ii.

Mine Filipino rose
Thou always asketh if I knoweth how much thou doth for me;
Yes, I do knoweth, as tis I'm so blessed, and thankful mine queen.

iii.

Mine Filipino rose
I've seen the street's of gold, the pearly gates, the mansion of god;
Because of thee, I've seen heaven's scene's, as thou art a cherub.

iv.

Mine Filipino rose
As I always sayeth, tomorrow may never cometh;
Where the fountain's of life floweth, there I'll stayeth.

v.

Mine Filipino rose
Mine existence, mine life, mine earl Jane, mine wife;
Mine law of good and right, if I dont awaketh, I'll be in the light.

vi.

Mine Filipino rose
I canst not taketh thing's for granted, night might be the last kiss;
For I shalt forever giveth to thee me mine dove, mine wish is this.

vii.

Mine Filipino rose
Mine wish is for if I'm to dieth tonight, never forget me lass;
Look beyond thy window glass, picture mine wing's in flight.

viii.

Mine Filipino rose
Mine heart, mind, spirit, leg's, arm's, eye's, hair, body, soul;
Mine everything of this being, I thanketh thee for all thou hath done.......,,.,

ix.

For god hast sent me an angel
Thee;
The chosen one...........

x.

Mine Filipino
Rose;
I loveth thee more.......

Guns and bullets.
Destroy dreams Of a kid who lost a father,
A son to a mother,
And a love to be surrender.

Body laid on the ground,
Lifeless,
Covered with his own blood.
Poured in his land.

Serving
Peace ,
For us to sleep,
At ease.

Their life,
Dreams,
And sacrifice.
Is enough.

Their battle,
Will never be won,
When we always think,
For our own instead for our nation.

Filipino ,
**** Filipino?
Where is the love and peace,
Mga kababayan  ko? (My countrymen)

Tagapagligtas naming sundalo(soldier),
You're a hero,
In a heart of every Filipino.
Remembering  you.
Please pray for the 44 brave souls of our soldier who has been killed in battle serving peace in my beloved country.

Ang hindi magmahal sa sariling wika
Ay higit sa hayop at malansang isda
Ayon sa isang taludtod na isinulat ng ating pambansang bayaning si Gat. Jose Rizal

Sa Luzon, Visayas at sa Mindanao
Wikang Filipino ang katutubong wika ko
Iba-iba man ang mga dayalekto
May ilakano, waray, bikolano at tausug
Wikang Filipino ang siyang gamit ko

Ngunit tila ba nalilimutan na ng mga milenyal
Na ang ating wika'y nararapat na pagyabungin
At bigyang halaga sa pakikipagtalastasan
Hindi ang hayaan at tuluyang iwaglit

Sa sulating pormal nga at mga sanaysay
Hindi nababanaag kung ano ang nais ipahiwatig
Kulang na nga sa mga titik
Mali pa ang baybay
Akala nila sila'y tila mahusay na

Sa mundo natin ngayon
Na makabago at teknolohiya
Tila ang Wikang Filipino'y naisasawalang bahala na
Na dapat sana'y isinasaulo't binibigyang halaga
Upang Wikang katutubo'y maipakilala sa madla
“Being a farmer is like being a priest;
you take a vow of poverty
and make a pact with the Lord
that no typhoon will come
and destroy your crops.”

In the rise of sedentary human civilization,
The nation’s agriculture
Became the key expansion.

Its history dates back thousands of years,
With its development,
Has been driven and defined –
By different climates, cultures, and technologies.

The Filipino farmers:
Are they now a dying breed?

Numbers of small farms has dwindled,
With workers opting for city life.
But this trend could exacerbate food insecurity!
Yes, in an import-dependent country –
Already struggling to meet current food demand.

In the face of growing losses,
And from volatile weather,
To new-fangled farming tech,
Limited education makes them less receptive.

What took such toll on the agricultural sector?
Maybe the farmer themselves,
The investors, the buyers – maybe.
Now, it’s due to the government policies,
Our programs are good, yet so weak.
There’s excessive reliance on agricultural imports,
And corruption on the upper level.

Compounding the problem
Is a younger generation –
Largely, leaving rural areas nationwide,
And depleting the pool of potential agricultural workers.

They say it’s too late to do something;
But the mind-set of the younger generation
Still we can change
And make farming appealing once again.

Wika ko ay siya ring wika mo
Tayo ay mga kapwa katutubo,
Pilipino ang ating sinisimbolo
Ano man ang ating kulay at anyo.

Wika ay pagkakaisa ng bawat isa
Pinagbuklod-buklod ang puso’t diwa,
Bukambibig ng maraming dila
Sa pagkakaintindihan siya’y itinakda.

Wika natin ay dapat na mahalin
Hindi natin dapat alipustahin,
Ito ay karapat-dapat na galangin
Ating ipagmalaki at ating tangkilikin.

Wika ay siyang sagisag ng ating bansa
Na binuo ng mga  mamamayang bihasa,
Dilang bihasa sa paggamit ng wika
At mahilig sa mabulaklaking salita.

Wika ko ay siya ring wika mo
Bumubuhay sa ating pagka Pilipino,
Pinapatatag ang ating hukbo
‘Yan ang tibay ng Filipino!

Filipino girl I love you so
and even tho we both live in two different worlds
it only makes me want you more
Filipino girl so beautiful it's you I adore
I dream someday I'll be holding you in my arms
one day we will be married and start a family
because Filipino girl you are the only one I wanna
give my heart too....

i.

A Vintage Alfajor necklace
To veil mine sovereign belle;
Betrothed for heaven's comfort
We hath already been through hell.

ii.

Ourn bygone time
Hath strengthened us for forthcoming rapture;
I'll be right next to her, in her allure
No death, forever, happily ever after.

iii.

I'll tryeth daily, tis none maby's
I'll doeth anything, for mine Filipino baby;
As tis I'll maketh her, forget her past
I'll be her bishop, she shalt be mine eternal hourglass.

iv.

As time goeth fast, I mustn't lose the thought
That tommorrow doth not always cometh, we dieth, get lost;
Though she hath found me, I knoweth what being saved mean's
I wilt liveth every day as mine last, and liveth it for mine queen.

v.

So dearest reyna, soulmate, and best friend
When thou doth readeth this, know ourn love shalt not end;
As we both understandeth, this planet is just a passage to the next
We wilt meeteth in this life, and afterward's, pag-ibig at it's best.

The State of My Tagalog:

Stuttering.

Guess that's what you can call it.

The insecure prose that curls downward
On my notebook.

It reeks of bit
And piece
And syllable.

Singular
Because language
After language
After language

Enter my mind
And slip it
Just as quickly,
Leaving only
Fragments.

Oh, the frustration
As I ask
For loose change
From
My sister cashier.

I can't even ask for
The right amount
In Tagalog nowadays.

"Singkwenta."
"Bente."

That adds up to 75, I think.

Passing score on my
Report card too.

My self-graded Filipino class.

Don't even know
How I managed
To spell "Ibarra,"

"Tanikala," "himagsikan,"
"Liwayway..."

I'd sing and not spell,
If they never caught
At the bottom of my throat.

-------------------------------------------

Ang Kalagayan ng Aking Tagalog:

Nauutal.

'Yan ang pwede **** sabihin sa ‘kin.

Walang tiwala sa sariling gawa,
Patunong pababa ang mga salita
Sa aking kwaderno.

Ito’y sumisingaw ng piraso
At bahagi
At pantig.

Nag-iisa
Dahil wika
Bawa’t wika
Bawa’t wika

Ay pumapasok sa aking kalooban
At umaalis
Ganun ding kabilis,
Naiiwan ang mga
Kaputol lamang nito.

O, kay inip
Habang ako’y humihingi
Ng barya
Kay Ateng Kahera.

‘Di ko nga kayang
Humingi ng tamang halaga
Sa wikang Pilipino ngayon.

“Singkwenta.”
“Bente.”
Ito ay pitompu’t lima, ata.

Pasang awa rin
Sa aking report kard

Sariling pagmamarka sa Filipino.

‘Di ko nga alam
Kung paano 'kong
Naisusulat ang “Ibarra.”

"Tanikala," "himagsikan,"
"Liwayway…"

Nais kong kantahin at huwag lang sulatin,
Kung ‘di lang man silang sumasabit
Sa ilalim ng aking lalamunan.

Mahal Kita means + I love you
      
     Nami-miss kita means- I miss you
Both from Filipino tongue..,
Sa pag-aaral natin ng panitikan ay mababatid natin ang mga Pilipinong pumanday ng ating matatayog at mararangal na simulain na naging puhunan sa pagbuo ng isang lipunan.
      Sa pamamagitan ng iba't ibang uri ng panitikan, mapalalawak at magagawang mahusay ng isang **** ang pagtuturo ng aaignaturang Filipino.
      Maaaring maiakma ang iba't ibang istratehiya upang mahikayat nang lubos ang interested ng mga mag-aaral at hawing kawili-wili ang oras nila lalo na sa pagbabasa sa pamamagitan ng paggamit ng tula, kwento, sanaysay, talambuhay, awit, bugtong, salawikain, sawikain, balagtasan at iba pa.
      Mahalagang maituturing ang panitikan sa edukasyon sa maraming paraan tulad ng mga teleseryeng napapanood sa telebisyon na kadalasang pinanonood ng mga kabataan na siyang kapupulutan ng maraming aral at magandang halimbawa sa buhay ng tao.
      Ang panitikan ay laging kasama sa kurikulum ng bawat paaralan bagamat ang bawat rehiyon ay mayaman sa tradisyon at kultura. Ang mga pasalindilang panitikan ay napapangkat sa mga sumusunod na uri ayon sa anyo ng pagkakatulad ng mga ito: kuwentong bayan, kasabihan, bugtong, salawikain, sawikain, sabi-sabi, palaisipan at balagtasan. Naglalarawan ito sa kanilang katutubong katalinuhan, kaalaman, karanasan, pananampalataya at iba pa.
      Patuloy ang pamumunga ng panitikang Filipino sa pamamagitan ng mga makabagong manunulat na may paninindigan at pagpapahalaga sa ugat, kasaysayan, kultura at lipunan. Mayabong itong nabubuhay sa patabang kaalaman at kamalayan, patubig ng limbagan at midya at paaraw sa modernisasyon at globalisasyon.
      Ito ang isa sa likas na tumutulong sa tagumpay ng isang banda at bawat bansa sa buong mundo. Kayamanang hindi mawawala.

She, the Filipino rose
That sit's in a vase, gilded in Filipino gold;
Builded by seraph's and cherub soul's
Structured by the hand of God, in mansion's of old.

ii.

She, the archangel, of storytime mode
She, the one mother's and father's hast a book of on their shelves;
She, the tunnel to the third heaven, the messenger of Christ's help
She, the light, she, yellow majesty bedight, she; mine jane: wife.

Builded is archaic meaning old for built...
Gilded means lightly covered gold leafing...
Third heaven in bible is where gods kingdom is.. First heaven is our air,,, second heaven biblically is universe or space.., third heavens beyond that to gods actual heaven... Real heaven!!!
bedight means adorned.. Or adorned in..
