THY BANNER DEAR

 A Memory

Going back to childhood, even before I was introduced to my first school, I had already noted how people paid respect to our flag each time it was unfurled and hoisted into the air with a long rope on a long pole. 

When our National Anthem was played, people would stop, placed their right hand across their chest over their breasts and attentively unmoved and proud to watch the flag flying. 

We did that at school each morning during the Flag Ceremony in the morning and Flag Retreat in the afternoon. That would conclude our day at school throughout the year. 

Both public and private schools observed such patriotic rules imposed by the law of the land. Government service offices did the same including the military posts for they are the protectors of our  sacred flag. 

Added to that, we also recited our  Pledge of  Allegiance to our Filipino Flag of Red, White and Blue representing the 3 main islands of my birth country with a big Yellow sunrays representing the regional provinces that fought hard for that freedom.  Such is the bright banner of Liberty.

DALAMPASIGAN SA PANUBIGAN

Tula ni Jeremiah Chavez Eufemio DALAMPASIGAN SA PANUBIGAN Sa lagaslas ng dalampasigan  Doon ko natagpuan ang kapayapaan Hatid ng hampas ng mga alon At banayad na init ng dapit hapon. Sa mga puting buhangin ng Panubigan Doon ko natagpuan ang karangalan Sa matapat na araw ng pangingisda Nang dumaong ang kanilang bangka sa dalampasigan Salat man sa karangyaan ng modernong pamumuhay Sagana naman sa kasiyahan at kapayapaan Kay gandang pagmasdan, kay sarap balikan Ang dalampasigan sa Panubigan.

Bakit Nakatungó Ang Uhay Ng Palay

Tula ni Rosario Caristea Aka Rio Ramillo  Bakit Nakatungó Ang Uhay Ng Palay Nakatungo akong hindi nahihiya, Kundi sinisinop ang para sa madla, Sapagkat batid kong sa aking aruga, Laging umaasa ang bawat sikmura. Nakatungo ako sa paáng maugat, Siya at ang ako’y laging nag-uusap, Upang alagaan ang butil ng bigas, Na syang magtatawid sa bitukang humpak. Nakatungo ako sa luwad na tigang, Matapos maiga ang nagpálang linang, Laging sumasamo sa sangkalangitang, Huwag ilalakas ang buhos ng ulan. Nakatungo akong may bagbag na puso, Na nakaririnig ng inyong pagsamo, Aking hinahamak ang pagkakalugso, Nang walang hiningang sa gutom mapugto. Nakatungo ako sa araw at gabi, Kahit dinadagil ng mga tutubi, Sapagkat ang minsang malingat nang kási, Nangangahulugang gútom sa marami. Nakatungo akong kapára ng buntis Na nasa kagampang, bigat tinitiis, Aking binabatá ang gintong pasakit, Nakatungo ako dahil umiibig! ~Rosario Caristea BIGKIS NG PANITIK
