Sunday Poem and Photograph: The Songs Unsung

Deep in the heart of me
are the songs unsung
As the pearls in the deepest sea
must remain unstrung

All that my wild heart sings
I may not feel
It is a bird that wings
To heaven and hell

For heights and depths there be
I have no tongue
Deep in the heart of me
are the songs – unsung

Remember my post Tomorrow is Not Promised? I was digging the box where I got that article again and found this poem printed in a bond paper.  There was a prologue that says:
Bits and pieces from my very own “Young Mind Collection”, some are original some are not.  Not sure what was the feeling or mood when it was written… just bits and pieces.  Here’s a piece I found from my old scrap book which is covered with my stamp collection and is dated December 1985.
I was wondering why this particular piece is printed in a bond paper.  Then I realized I printed it from my “FRIENDSTER” blog and the “Young Mind Collection” that I was referring to was a category from that blog of mine.  But what I can’t recall is where did I get this poem and I don’t remember writing it myself either.   I found it both funny and amusing to find a piece of my thoughts back in Friendster days.

By the way, the photograph is taken from a beach in Guimaras Island.

  6. Like ko yung... As the pearls in the deepest sea must remain unstrung. Daming meanings depende sa sumulat at panahon. 1985, tagal na noh.

Missionaries of Charity Home of Joy for the Sick Children

“this place will break your heart, will make you cry, will make you want to reach out, and will make you feel grateful & thankful, all at the same time…”   They are located at: 1030 Tayuman Street, Tondo, Manila. Their telephone number is (+632) 255-0832 and the contact person is Sister Anselm. I wrote that caption in this same season last year, my first time to visit a place called “Missionaries of Charity Home of Joy for the Sick Children”.  I was with a  group of friends along with our respective families.  I could never be thankful enough to our friend Rupert and his family for leading us to this place.  It was not my first time to do a charity visit to an orphanage and I sort of wonder why we were “brief” that this is for special children.  I only realized what that briefing is about when I see for myself how “special” these children are.  I apologize if this may not sound good to some, but the sight of the sick children is heartbreaking.  I tried to look tough and not to

Go Kart at SM Mall of Asia Amusement Complex

I’m doing my usual morning run at the SM Mall of Asia bay side when I spotted this area.  It kind of caught me by surprise seeing this area as colorful and lively because I remember during my last run, this area is used to be surrounded with iron sheets coverings, the same thing when there’s something being constructed inside the coverings.  And then I remembered that I had a short break from my morning run.  It seems like this activity is launched while I was on short break from my morning run.   As usual, every time I see something new that looks exciting, I am excited to share the info to you all.  So for those who are into cars and driving, this one’s for you! “Go Kart” !
