Inspired Pen - Poem by Marvin Brato Sr

Day by day you give me inspiration
Your graceful countenance beatifies me
The innate beauty that you possess
Captures my whole being... my very soul!

Wherever I go or stay, I always think of you
Even in my solemn slumber I see your face
In my vivid imagination, I can not erase you
I dream of you... my fairest one.

If only I have a face like that of Adonis
Or perhaps an intellect like that of Rizal
Who were paragons as being a handsome & a hero
Then maybe I would not have some difficulties!

A guy like me was born an introvert
A lone dweller in life's secluded horizons
As a Pisces I am quiet & sensitive
Yet, I can be a friend, an admirer... a lover!

I have not got enough guts to converse with you
Because I think... I am made a dreamer
And my only means of expressing my sentiments
Is through my pen...my world of thoughts!

(why *** Before Marriage?) - Poem by Marvin Brato Sr


Marriage sanctifies ***,
*** consummates marriage.
But why prefer *** before marriage,
is there one or more reasons to consider?

Virginity:
Maybe its still men's quest,
a priority test for him as the best.
So that the mating could be marked,
as something worth experience to take.

Sensuality:
The best part in *** is sensuality,
that each mate could get from ***.
The manner a partner performs well,
is much desired by almost hot lovers.

Sexuality:
Science could enhance state of sexuality,
cosmetology can recreate the transformation.
By *** before marriage a person can discern,
is the smart way to test the true lover's affinity.

Compatibility:
****** compatibility excites much pleasure,
Aside from love it is where both are in tune.
And to know what degree of zest it can set,
through *** before marriage is the gauge.

Now is your 57th birthday my brother,
In many years you and I are together.
Never at anytime we have made trouble,
In anything be it personal or about family,
Kindhearted you are towards our parents.

Many times you sacrifice your budget,
Of giving support in kind to father is great.
Rest assured your humility is your best asset,
Always make you better than all of us to date.
God shall bless you with peace and good health,
As always you live a good life even less of wealth.

Better be poor in money than being greed for riches,
Real love of parents isn't measured how much one shares.
A good offspring supports his old folks in better or worse times,
The only time one realizes the value of relationship is when it wanes.
On this note you and I are together in serving our parents till the last.

Living Right - Poem by Marvin Brato Sr

Life is quite unpredictable
as it is short is likely probable
it is a matter of personal decision
on how to make life worth the mission
of living right by doing your obligations
to yourself and others without hesitations.

Living right is not an easy undertaking
it compels dedication and understanding
of the multifarious avenues of humanity
challenges are opt to tackle with sanity
overcoming the obstacles take true courage
we must not yield to quit nor be discourage.

Living right is being selfless to set good example
for others to discern that happiness in life is ample
that there are quality moments to share with everyone
give your utmost love to others by not hurting anyone
when time comes for life to reach the end of existence
we are ready leaving a legacy of living right as essence.

Poetic Condiments - Poem by Marvin Brato Sr

If only poetry is food
then its easy to digest
and assimilate its content
to nourish with full satisfaction

But poetry is inanimate
depicts sentimental intricacies
of human emotions filling the heart
with variable expressions to be extracted

Bards are gifted composers
who cook amazing compositions
of poetic arrays of exotic thoughts
like condiments educing nourishment

' I Found My Wife'' - Poem by Marvin Brato Sr

My mother once said:
'Son, find the right girl to marry'
was her best advised that day.
She meant that I find a girl
who is loyal, bright and pretty
an ideal gal she wanted for me.

But, wherever I look I can't find
the ideal maiden right for me.
Many gals look refine and beautiful,
just like the woman my father married.
So I just pray that someone will come
a woman just like what my mum wants.

Today in 30 years I have been married
our love still lingers with zest that blaze.
Truly I can say that she isn't the woman
whom mother wants for me to marry
But I can proudly answer her today:
'Mother, Miliza is the woman for me!

She maybe not an ideal woman
As she is not perfect in all ways
But my heart always beats for her
That my mind can't stay sane without
True love need not be an ideal someone
Yet it is the happiness that counts in love!

Remarkable Mentor (Judy Ann Napalit Nengasca,65) -
Poem by Marvin Brato Sr

Just mentoring is your innate forte and calling,
Universally knowledgeable in vital specific thing.
Decorum in doing assigned task is your standard,
Yet open-minded to paradigm shift is in your card.

Almost all interns you had trained have earned success,
Nobody could say they have not learned in the process.
Now, we are grateful for guiding us to perform our best.

Never in your vocabulary to spend any idle time,
All you do is cultivate knowledge like a gold mine.
Push to nurture in-depth ideas for intellectual growth,
A character of yours that accentuated your mental worth.
Lessons you taught made us understand the valuable principle,
Incite moral and good moral ethics for us to become responsible.
Today as Medical Technologists we are all proficiently capable.

Never will we forget the professionalism you have shown,
Enthusiasm you embodied will remain a legacy as our own.
None of us will smear the reputation that you have created,
Good example is the National Blood Program you executed.
As this was Dr. Asucion Paraan's initiative for a DOH project,
Such platform has proved as an effective tool none will reject.
Come retirement day marks your iconic stance apt to celebrate,
As you are our inspiration and role model for us all to emulate.

The Journey - Poem by Marvin Brato Sr

When I walk into a place
Amidst busy people in haste
Heads turn to me I wonder why
As if they have seen a thing in awe
So I am oblige to smile and say hello


I think:
Maybe it is because I look neat and fresh
With a gentlemen haircut and shaven face
O because of my manly aura and sharp look
Wearing rugged garb with a macho image I took

When I speak most people if not all listen
Though they are doing something in between
I raise my hand or move further they follow
I rant a phrase they also echo with pleasure
They love me each time I give them a lecture

I say:
These people must have seen something interesting
In my being that myself do not discover or forgetting
Maybe because I am cool and pleasant when spoken with
I inspire their imaginations taking the time with weight

When both men and women great with with esteem
I reciprocate to their acts with kindness as a friend
Many are receptive to the ideas share without flattery
They ask for my opinion and request to meddle on something
To resolve their problem by giving them practical mentoring

This prove:
That I am a person of wisdom which has importance
I possess charisma that can convince with substance
My presence reassures those individuals who lost hope
My bold appeal excite the broken souls to stand and cope

When I just relax and calm in recollection
I think of the humankind and God's relation
I don't instill paradox clues about religion
As I'm a sinner like everyone else who are mortal
I shouldn't be praise by those who think I'm moral

I confess:
I am only human and not a son or perfect father
I may have provided my family enough being a provider
Of simple things which I work hard to become upgraded
As what others have seen in me is what I am best rated

When women begin to act quite intimate with me
It's because I'm amiable and complaint as can be
I show no sign of abuse of their frailties but respect
I'm open to their innate expressions about love and men
To prove that I'm not bias or against all sorts of women

In my heart:
Like all men I have a mother, sisters, wife and daughter
Females to whom I have to give respect, love, care with laughter
Also for whom I work hard to provide their all basic mundane needs
Thus, I want them to feel secure and happy by giving them good deeds

When some families gather together inviting me as guest
I heartily join in their merriment with myself at it's best
With poems I give as gifts as complimentary act f my gratitude
Sharing them some sentiments about on what family should be like
Or innate expressions of love for others as legacy I want to excite

In retrospect:
I have had some detailed episodes about a family life
I experienced it as a son and father both good and strife
In having to cope with the burden i raising a big household
That being a son and father I have innate duties to act bold


When at work with different kind of associates to deal
I am focus on my duties and react to colleagues quite real
They come to confer or ask to assist them finish their work
With all humility I conform to their requests with a compliance
I believe harmony should prevail in a workplace to keep balance


I uphold:
I can generate cooperation by initiating support
I can be of significance by showing a good effort
I shouldn't complain if I don't like to be detested
I should mind my own business if I am not requested

When troublemakers come to confront me face to face
I hold my sanity and act accordingly without malice
I stand to reason with them on basis of truthfulness
To stop, look and listen then argue to reach a verdict
Hitches can't be solve if none settles the conflict


I insist:
Any battle can be won if willing to set an open argument
Existence with harmony is the essence of our earthly event
Why set fire if one can talk it out expressing sentiments
Pray and ask God's mercy and forgiveness than just laments

When acquaintances visit me with encouraging words on my bed
In moments when I am sick or sort of disheartened they do heed
They all wish me fast recovery and good well to come on my way
Maybe they have recalled I too have empathized for them somehow
In times of trouble that they have experienced in the past I vow

I understand:
Because these people may have thought I deserve attention
To reciprocate what I have done when they too need affection
As human I also understand the sentiments of the ordinary people
I undergone some burdens in my life but surmount those I hurdle


When my parents and children solicit adoration
I can't refuse to do my best to give consideration
Just like any good son and father I should do my part
They are my inspiration and reason why I desire to live
Longer than my lifespan that my love for them I can give

To my mind:
I owe my life to my parents for their sacrifices and affection
I want this legacy to pass on to my offspring as an inspiration
That when I am done they shall inherit the willingness to do well
In all aspects of mentoring their own families with innate goodwill


When friends and enemies gather for my own sake
To extend heartfelt condolences for my family on my wake
I can't count how many have sincere conscience being there
To console my family feeling lost of my presence with them
I can only wish that none shall be glad that I reach my end

I am thankful:
To have bold six children who are quite independent
A wife having a strong character for me is a complement
Surely I have shown them how to tackle all the life's tasks
To equip them with character to survive as courageous casts

Natal Day - Poem by Marvin Brato Sr
Whenever it is your birthday my friend,
Enjoy the moment and be happy to no end.
Nothing more important in life than stay living,
Care for your health as it is priceless and lifesaving.
Even when getting older yet it's a step being smarter,
Spend the free time with family and friends to feel better.
Leave no place for negativism but allow space for positivism,
In this world we only live once so let live with much optimism.
None else can decide for what you want to do but yourself only,
Advise may be solicited from others but the finality is yours fully.

Ciming home alone may accentuate inner solitude,
And yet being a stong woman you incite fortitude.
Do what make you glad and share the joy with everybody,
As you have a good heart and hold no antipathy for nobody.
Onward to your adventures as single with much bliss to give.
