Poetry Making Contest (kakapagod)

Hmm., how should I start? Well, let me just make this brief  coz I'm bit kind of sleepy right now. English month is not yet way over (you know!). I'm so freakin' tired already of all the practices for our upcoming playlet entitled "AENEID".. (you better read books on greek myth for more infos). I also just had my DECLAMATION Contest yesterday, Nov. 19, and I'm proud to say that I did my best. Win or lose doesn't count on me coz I'm more on the experience than the prize (that's me). And yet, another activity has arrived (phew!).. A POETRY MAKING CONTEST (again!? ang dami naman!) the poem should go with the theme "A Tribute To Teachers".And here's my simple yet meaningful piece...

“Exquisitely Touched”
BY: MARIELLE A. GRENGIA

A great affection I first thought as mundane

Stunned me with surprising value I’ve attained

An inspiration that cultivates my unseen track

With endeavor not to let my bright future crack

A teacher is more important than what he teaches

An insinuation to the facet of what one crosses

One who stands as our friend and an advocate

To whom the feeling of comfort is proximate

If the vestige of one’s education remains clueless,

They come as heroes to save us from being hopeless

Even if no matter what, there are things they can’t abide,

We knew that we love you and we can no longer hide

Like a candle, consumes itself to light the way of others

It gives me a bizarre glance on my footsteps I mustn’t alter

With all the sacrifices and sleepless nights they’ve given

We know that they’re worth it and should never be forgotten

Nourishing our minds with vast ideas and knowledge

Can’t be measured with the love and bonds we’ve shared

Without teachers, there’ll be no professionals as such

And as I come to an end, Thank You for I am EXQUISITELY TOUCHED

GOOD NIGHT! TAH-TAH :)
