Acacia

ACACIA July 13,2009

Ni Bb. Glenda C. Pon-an

Punong matatag, matibay at matayog, Bawat sanga’y lilim ang handog,

Yabong ng dahon, napapawi ang pagod, Ugat ay kaiba, palamuting hutok, Acacia, likas kang mahiwaga, sandigan ng lungkot

Ng mga nilalang at kaluluwang naghihimutok. Taglay na kalikasan, pangkat kang karagdagan,

Sa ikatlong -taon, ng Pablo Lorenzo Mataas na Paaralan, Naitatag noong Hunyo 22, 2009 nang walang alinlangan,

Hinagpis mang nadama mga napiling magaaral, Buong puso ring nilisan pangkat na kinagisnan,

Upang harapin mga bagong kaklase’t kaibigan. Sa kasunod na saknong, ako’y iyong pahintulutan,

Bilang tagapayo at sa kanila’y gagabay, Pagmamalaki kong ilahad para sa iyong pagkilanlan, Mula sa unang bilang hanggang hulihan,

Bilang tanda, pangkat Acacia ikaw ay pinahalagahan, Kaya’t ikintal mga sumusunod na pangalan.

Acacia, matatag, matibay at matayog pa, Punong pamana, punung-puno ng pagasa! Memories in the Old Acacia Tree Jeffrey Umotoy .

I love playing

Under the old acacia tree Drawing my name on its husky trunk And hiding to the warmth rays of the sun I am here through My good and bad times Remembering the days of the Blossoming flowers Where grasshoppers chirps and hops through the lawn I see the rosy red morning, and the orange yoLk sundown

I play with my peers, running, hiding to the acacia tree Alone, all I do is get a twig and write to the ground A malady came; I’m not allowed to go to the tree I’m so sad, cry all day, happy days are gone I plea to my mother to bring me to the tree The tree have chaNge, it change a lot I don’t feel I’m home, he left me

Not just the tree, Everything’s gone The rosy red morn’, Blue sky and clouds I can hear the chirps But they seem hiding All I can see is Dark And all I can feel Is the warmth of the sun.
