Amihan
(in Philippine, northeast wind)
Where I live,
When the weather
Comes from the east,
An unusual day
Arrives with it
Different time is allowed,
No value yet, not
Good or bad
Will the air be dense
With drenched nuclei,
Will the sky be sliced:
Will weighted water
Pummel us from above
Then, once cleansed—no,
Purged—and dried
Will we breathe
An ameliorating atmosphere
As a gift from no one
We know how to thank
Valued thus rendered
In innocence
With feet wet
From Eden’s tears,
We tread home
To do our best
To make
A heaven here
