I AM (Free Verse)A Chapter by Daisie Vergara (Dhaye)...who I am.I am not afraid anymore…
I am strong enough Pliant like the bamboo Strong as the Narra tree Persistent like a carabao A child of Jose Rizal.
I am optimistic…
Like an eagle, I know I can fly high I possess the beauty of Sampaguita But can defend myself As Arnis has taught me Therefore I am easy But can move on with such simplicity I face the sun every morning And whisper my prayers to the sky For my dreams And hopes And life.
I am dignified…
To carry the blood of my heroes To live in this bountiful land- The Pearl of the Orient Seas. Yes, I am honored To be who I am- A survivor I am the product of the strong past And the future of my nation.
I am who I am…
I am a Filipino. © 2014 Daisie Vergara (Dhaye)Author's Note
