Poem: LOVE


Love
Juliet Fortich
Funny it seems that I used to be a remarkable lover of love.
Love that I thought was the one which would make me happy.
One that will fill all what I need.

 When I was young, I used to see love as the greatest gift of all time.
I always imagined how life would be without love.
When I grew a little bigger, I experienced the pain that love gave.
As I grew up and tried to settle
Thinking that love would be greater
When we were building dreams together
Sharing laughter and tears

So sad that it was almost often tears.
I thought that it wouldn’t cease.
That even the love that other people had I often seize.
But indeed God wants that everyone experience
How wonderful love may be.

A love came unexpectedly
Not knowing where and how it found me.
I used to say, I don’t believe in a stupid thing
But I am happy that today, I could say that Love is indeed a special gift
That only God can show the way to have it.

If I am to live my life again,
I would choose to be with the person I longed to be with the rest of my life.
He may be so far away
But the love we have for each other draw us close each and every day.
I wish that love be so special for both of us.
Wish that Love be on our side.

I always have wished for a great true love.
I never have thought that I already had it back in the past
But I lost it when I had to have my pride.
I loved him then, I loved him now and I love him forever.
Now that he is in my heart
I don’t know how to stop
Missing and loving
The person I longed for yesterday, today and tomorrow.

Motherless boys

             As I was taking a rest from my very tiring work one afternoon, two kids came to me and greeted me, "hi Teacher!"  I told them, "oh! I am taking a rest boys, why are you here?"  They both said, "we just dropped by Teacher to say hi!" "So what are you doing?" one boy asked?  "I am writing the grades on the report card."  I asked them, "so what about you both, did you pass for the next grade?"  One boy said. "only him," pointing the other boy, "but I didn't."  "Oh, I see, you were always absent in the class that is why.  May I ask why you were always absent?"  "Teacher, my aunt always tells me to be absent. Whenever I dress up for school, she would tell me to look after the internet cafe because no one will watch it. And if I will not watch it, I will not have fare."  "What a stupid reason that is for your aunt to say?" I s...

English Language; Key to Global Access

ENGLISH LANGUAGE; KEY TO GLOBAL ACCESS Juliet Fortich Language, this is how people communicate. Without this we can never understand each other. Language though may come in different ways. It may be by touch, by mere actions, sound and most of all through the use of speech. Everyone may be able to communicate with each other using their own way. But nothing is much clearer than speaking.                 People all around the globe speak different languages. Some speak British, some Italian, others speak Arabic, Korean, Niponggo, Mandarin and some speak Chinese. But nothing can beat the international language which is English. Who understands the languages I mentioned aside from English? Do you?                 English so far stands out from the rest. Go to anywhere in the world and speak different language beside their own an...
