Memories

The following is a poem composed by Ms. Jona Tabago of Kingsland Village, Palapala, Dasmariñas, Cavite. I have edited it for brevity. Ayos ba?

Memories
Every story comes to an end;
Memories remain, always
for sad and happy moments─
laughters shared,
teardrops shed.
in our hearts they wait for quickening.
Instances of sharing, laughing, strengthening,
each recollection chasing one another;
For every promise planted,
a prayer of hope that it be granted.
See weakness, see helpless, let courage rise!
No matter the future distant, His answer comes in just an instant.
So now this end—is thus our destiny?
Catastrophe or comedy, we shall see.

"Worry does not empty tomorrow of its sorrow; it empties today of its strength."
