MULING PAG-APOY

Tula ni Jeffrey Dacanay Cejero



Muling Pag-apoy
(soneto)

Ningas ng pag-asa, pinatay ang liyab
Halakhak ng dilim, huwad ang pagkintab
Pangarap nabaon, araw walang siklab
Pilit iginapos, pusong nag-aalab

Masamang panahon, naghari sa lupa
Bumagyo't lumindol, pandemya't sakuna
Pagputok ng bulkan, bumulwak ang sala
Kailan titigil, kailan lalaya?

Nagdurugong puso, pilit siniraan
Sa bukang-liwayway, doon sa silangan
Apoy ng pag-ibig, sindi sa karimlan
Mahal nating bayan, dasal niya'y pakinggan

Boses ng marami,  umalab ang tinig
Tayo'y magkaisa sa iisang himig

COCOY LAUREL'S GIFT TO NORA AUNOR

Image
Borrowed from Andra Exclusive 24 April 2025 Lifted from Celia Diaz Laurel  23 May 2023 Because YOU asked for it, we are giving you another snippet of “The Remarkable Miss Nora Aunor” penned by Celia Diaz Laurel for the Superstar's 18th birthday.  Lollipops and Roses was a certified blockbuster but her legion of fans would not have probably hinted that Nora was silently suffering from many things, mainly intrigues and social pressure during this film’s shoot in the US.  In her tribute, Mrs. Laurel disclosed about a particular day when Nora was not in her usual active self and had become the shoot's cause of delay due to her frequent disappearances from the set. Naturally, the delays had also began to make her two leading men, Cocoy and Don Johnson, fidgety too.  So with all good intentions, Mrs. Laurel silently followed her. She found her sobbing in a corner. Trying her best to comfort her, Mrs. Laurel gently placed her hand on Nora's head.  Though surprised, the...

Lifted from Saga Sphere Al Info  Comparing the Strength of Super Typhoons: Yolanda, Odette, and Uwan Super Typhoons Yolanda (Haiyan, 2013), Odette (Rai, 2021), and Uwan (2025) are among the strongest tropical cyclones to ever hit the Philippines. Yolanda reached peak winds of 315 km/h, making it one of the most powerful storms ever recorded globally, causing catastrophic damage in Eastern Visayas. Odette, though slightly weaker, still had sustained winds of 195 km/h and intensified quickly before landfall, devastating the Visayas and Mindanao regions. Uwan,185–205 km/h (115–127 mph)  a more recent storm, strengthened rapidly due to favorable warm sea surface temperatures and low wind shear, reaching super typhoon status, with significant rainfall and flooding across affected areas. While all three typhoons share the “super typhoon” classification, their intensity, wind speed, and socio-environmental impacts differ. Yolanda was unprecedented in strength, Odette was notable for ...
