Ang Kaibigan Kong si Mashreq


ANG KAIBIGAN KONG SI MASHREQ
Ni Amos Tarana


Maghapon,
magdamag ay nakatayo
sa tabing kalsada.
Sa kanyang trabaho
kahit minsa’y ‘di pa
nagpahinga.
Sa aking mga kababayan
siya’y namimigay
ng pera.

  1. great work pare. you're writing what is not being written.. you're showing us what has not been showed in our popular media.

    keep it up pare... very rich and eye-opener reflections..

    you might write also about bicolano OFWs influx in Dubai. im sure you've got lotsa reflections about it.

  2. great work!? wow wowee, kaibigan at kapatid talaga kita hehehe

    paniniwala nga ni john lennon: "my role in society, or any artist's or poet's role, is to try and express what we all feel. not to tell people how to feel. not as a preacher, not as a leader, but as a reflection of us all"

    salamat sa komento at mungkahi, nakakataba ng puso. hayaan mo't dadagdagan ko ang koleksyong ito upang mailimbag pagdating ng panahon at nang malaman ng mga kababayan natin sa pinas na hindi langit ang buhay abroad.
