THE PRINCESS OF MANILA



Somewhere in Asia, lives the Princess of Manila
She dwells in the sovereign Palace
Alone but waiting for her lover
She sat by a window made of gold
In her scintillating and beautiful robe
She was waiting with a radiating face
With eyes that narrate the story of love
She kept looking outside
Impatience drowned her soul to tears
She said: where are you, my heart?
But ‘my heart’ could not respond to her
She added: Where are you, my love?
But ‘my love’ could not hear her voice
A river of sadness started flowing
From the heart of the Princess of Manila
When the night fell, she was still waiting
Enraged, she ripped her robe apart
Suddenly a messenger bird knocked the window
It brought a paper from the prince
The paper says: I am almost there my love
She read it and shouted: My love is coming! He is coming!
She then started smiling like a child
And fell back on the bed out of excitement
She called her maid with a tender voice
She shouted again: My love is coming! He is coming!
And then the princess of Manila continued to wait
This is the story of the Princess of Manila

My little Racoon

Daughter, I know you'll leave me soon I'll miss you, my little racoon  I will be by myself gazing up to the moon  Who will play with me at the park when it's noon? Cause, my darling , you'll leave me soon Daughter, I know you'll leave me soon When it's my birthday, who will bring me balloon? Who's gonna sit by me to watch cartoon ? You won't be there , my little racoon  Cause, my little clone, you'll leave me soon Who will I teach how to properly use a spoon? Who will I tell bedtime stories about the moth and the cocoon? Please remember , my little racoon  Daddy will always love you, my little racoon Let me dry these tears  until that day comes Alas, I can't believe you'll leave me soon! I am sorry, I can't take it anymore It just hurts the more I think about you I love you, my little racoon by  John Mayer Charmant This poem shall not be republished under any other name besides the author...

Truth

Some ask , some answer Some don't ask , some don't answer But why ? Why do we do or do not ? Why do we seek or seek not ? The old man is searching for a purpose The young man is looking for a reason to act But the wise  discerns and relentlessly thinks But why ? It seems like the answer is on the tip of your tongue It  might be that you can hear it from the melodious voice of the choir It might be that you already knew it all along But why people keep confusing me ? This world is too loud I'm tired of you and you and you ! I think I knew it all along Here's the answer It is near Here's he standing on the clouds with truth and retribution Witness the power of truth  by  John Mayer Charmant This poem shall not be republished under any other name besides the author's name mentioned herein

Queen Irma

What happened to me? I don't know what happened to me Yet I am here looking at her majesty I am here listening to her voice of melody  She is holding my heart like a microphone And playing my mind like a xylophone  She sings  words of love The lyrics fly in my sky like a dove They say :  "Reign over my kingdom,baby Reign , for in my kingdom thou are mighty wreck , wreck  the  intruding enemy  Lead my army to impressive victory Make all rebels bow before thee Reign , reign over my kingdom, baby." What happened to me? I don't know what happened to me Yet I am here looking at her sovereignty She holds my heart like a scepter  A scepter  of love and verity  This is my dear queen Where art thou, my queen? by  John Mayer Charmant This poem shall not be republished under any other name besides the author's name mentioned herein
