BUS RIDE
By Maria Teresa M. Evangelista
July 10, 2010
I woke up so late, and so I must rush,
I need to go to Manila city,
So waving high my hand to catch a bus,
Until I was seated comfortably.
I took a seat nearest to the window,
For I am enjoying watching the view,
It’s simply like viewing a movie show,
Just to find I arrived before I knew.
The many green plots in the country fields,
A lot of these became dry and brown,
And the vast soil begging that Heaven spills,
Rain to soften the barren chunky ground.
While back on my seat with a short prayer,
Asking dear God to keep watching closely,
To teach man how to turn the plots greener,
To grow grains to feed the poor and hungry.
Further, I saw distant mountains’ shadows,
Lucky are they who dwell in the cool breeze,
And richly surrounded by fresh wind blows,
With plenty fruits from tall fruit-bearing trees.
Far at my left, I saw another view,
Standing, the lone mountain in the lowland,
If only more mountains rise up anew,
Air we breathe in be surely the best brand.
But we’re given freewill to make a start,
Within our life circle, our own backyard,
To improve our share and to do our part,
So lovely mountains move right in our yard.
We kept on journeying along life’s road,
The span is smooth or rocky, or holed,
My mind is playing while I am on board,
Happy trips lie on how we see the world.
