And The King of Pop Receives His Rest
He felt the pain.
But sought the beauty within it.
Alone in fame.
He stood on peaks no one has known.
Giving unselfishly to those who slander,
Who would not let him rest.
And scandalize to steal peace and popularity...
They assisted in his untimely death.
And the world weeps.
Yes!
As deceivers bleed from misdeeds planted,
Eternally!
With souls unseen but screaming.
In a deafness invisible yet felt.
And the King of Pop,
Receives his rest...
Redeemed!
In Tribute:
Michael Joseph Jackson
Prince of Peace
'He lived and enjoyed the giving of it! '
~LSP~
Thank you. Thank you, Michael.

A Poem for November 28,2007
At rest, in peace, and happily,
in silence, in stillness, and joyfully,
honour yourself. Be yourself.
When you honour yourself
you honour the whole created world.
Live just this day in your glorious self.
Remember it for the rest of your life
as the day the world rested in itself,
the day we were all at rest in peace,
the day the world was a happy place
and you were glad to be that peace;
the day we were all ourself.

Michael Jackson! King of Pop
The artistically king of pop
The legendary cream of the crop
In silence your world falls
Through hearts and souls, large and small
With your final curtain call
Sadly there were many of us not there
In your solitary blackest moments of fear
Michael Jackson! With sobbing tears we cry
Michael Jackson! Why did you fly far away so high?
On life’s theatre stage you broke phenomenal grounds
As we take a look back to culture, songs and sounds
When black and white were maliciously separate
You brought to the world universal love instead of hate
Through your songs was born a faith
So strong it reunited people, countries and states
Michael Jackson! With sobbing tears we cry
Michael Jackson! Why did you die before saying goodbye?
The dancing genius - Father of the moonwalk
The world is curious – Small talk becomes large talk
And now your memory will stalk us
As you return back to dust so fast!
Goodbye and may you be in peace at last

Christmas Eve: 1872
Peace in the snowy breast,
O cloud from storm at rest!
Peace in the winds that sleep
Upon the deep.
Peace in the starry height:
Peace infinite,
Through all the worlds that move
Within His love.
O! all sad hearts, that be
On land or on the sea,
God’s peace with you rest light
This Christmas night!
And with the souls that stand
In that dear land
Where pain and all tears cease,
Most perfect peace!

A Farewell to Michael Jackson
Farewell King Of Pop, Farewell Moon Walker
Farewell Michael Jackson, Farwell our best joker.
Here is Michael Jackson, the one,
who connected the black and white
he has forever gone
taking with him the world's light.
The earth is crying for you Jackson
& People are doing the same
They are missing you Jackson
and your big music flame.
All I can do is to say Good bye
Hoping for you a calm sleep
We are leaving you with our face holding a sad sigh
and our hearts saving your memory in deep.
We are leaving you with a big tear
and hoping you could hear.
Bye King Michael
What is Peace? ?
What is peace? ?
Peace is when you care for others,
Peace is when there is no violence in the world,
Peace is much more powerful then evil,
Peace is easily found when you give others what you desire,
Peace is the answer to all the wars in the world,
Peace is when there is unity among all the people,
Peace is when your soul can rest,
Peace is when there is hope of good above,
Peace is when there is love for others,
Peace is when there is acceptance in the world,
Peace is bringing joy to the world,
Peace is in helping others
This is what Peace is,
This and much more!

The Clearing
Insecure in all I see.
In every word,
every deed.
Seems no matter what I do.
I screw it up through and through.
How am I to keep from falling to my death?
Your words have killed.
Peace of mind is laid to rest.
No matter what I have to do,
I'll find a way to fight on through.
I'll show you how my strength is great.
How all you fools did underestimate.
Don't stop me nowI have no fear,
one day soon I'll be in the clear.
I'll tell the world what I've been through.
Pain and suffering felt so true.
I'll tell you all how I did try,
even though there were many times I could have died.
So step aside and please let me live.
Vicious digs I no longer want to take or give.
I look for peace.
I look for love.
What better to give and recieve a precious dove.
One day soon I hope it will pass.
I tire of this useless bit.
Confused and taken my soul is shaken.
Yet still I hope,
it is not breakin.
So now take heed I plant the seeds.
To find divine fortune which I need.

Part Of Life, That is
Few get to sit in the midst of it.
Part of life that is.
With the giving of opinion and the giving of lip.
Part of life that is.
Few get to sit in the midst of it.
Part of life that is.
With the giving of opinion and the giving of lip.
Part of life that is.
Stuck with sticking emotions felt in my gut...
Unable to abandon them.
Or give them up...
Had been a place I'd been,
Back then.
With no one but myself...
And faith,
To help me slowly break away...
Of a hold I had on them to mend.
Few get to sit in the midst of it.
Part of life that is.
With the giving of opinion and the giving of lip.
Part of life that is.
I have learned to feel grief deeply,
Where it is felt.
Let it visit.
And then from it to leave!
Not to forget the process...
But to breathe!
Remembering...
With an agony upon my letting go,
Knowing what I felt was painful...
It was also,
Part of life!
A part of life,
That is!
Few get to sit in the midst of it.
Part of life that is.
With the giving of opinion and the giving of lip.
Part of life that is.
Few get to sit in the midst of it.
Part of life that is.
With the giving of opinion and the giving of lip.
Part of life that is.
Few get to sit in the midst of it.
Part of life that is.
With the giving of opinion and the giving of lip.
Part of life that is.

On the day of Ramzan
On the day of Ramzan
Muslims all over the world
Completed a month of
Fasting-throughout-the-day
More than anything else
They enjoyed the pleasure
Of being kind to others
Of being concerned with the welfare of the unknown
Of availing the opportunity of giving
Of reaching out to help the poor
Of having understood the pains of others
Of sharing whatever they have
Of discovering new ways of being useful to others
Of feeding the fast
Of capturing the gains of fasting
Of being considerate and passionate
Of being resolved and determined
Of having felt the oneness of humanity
Of realizing the worth of healthy eating
Of loving and caring
Of knowing not pain in giving
Of knowing what all they gain is only for giving
Of giving without being asked for
Of recognizing that giving is joyful, and not holding
Of having stepped ahead in the spiritual path
Of enlightenment and thus enlightening others
Let others too
Learn this art of giving
So that the future world
Finds a humanity
Enjoying a harmonious living
In peaceful co-existence
Every one appreciating the concerns of
Every other one

Just cause I bleed like the rest
Don't mean I see like the rest
I see like my self, bleed like rest,
sometimes do what they do
but romodel my self to what I know is true
special and unknown
giving respect to get respect
to be my best to be left alone
with no trace of a clone
becasue I'm Unique to my self
Being My Own
Angels Sing As God Receives Michael Jackson
angels in myriads sing
as God Jesus receives
soul Michael Jackson’s
into eternity his heaven
in America when Michael Jackson promoted
conservation ‘Earth Song’ save peace themes
Michael was sin politically targeted slandered
then Salem witch hunt nationally discredited
‘We Are The World’ Michael's innocent vision
piano keys poverty black white bones slaughtered
Illuminati enraged plots vile character bite incision
Illuminati hates God love people earth save vision
‘We Are The World’ this our beautified earth save vision
“We are the world We are the children....
Send them your heart So they'll know that someone cares...
As God has shown us by turning stone to bread
So we all must lend a helping hand”
Illuminati plots sows new world order dark enslavement seeds
Illuminati will do anything to destroy
innocent Michael’s legacy influence
executed killed to order not by martyr gun
interesting trying to trace where attacks
upon innocent Michael’s character originated
evidence indicates evil smear campaign of lies
a national priority by several cult organizations
mist mind demons sow hate agenda public arena
this world has slandered attacked and killed
peace makers for thousands of years continuous
when will peace have a chance reign glorious?
like a child enlightened minds promote pious
random fusing might simply bring into meaning
neutralization of different voices violence hating
Michael the two of us need live on earth no more
we spoke words peace love in air from God we bore
‘Earth Song’ by Michael Jackson carry us to heaven’s door
“What about sunrise?
What about rain?
What about all the things?
That you said we were to gain
What about killing fields?
Is there a time?
What about all the things
That you said was yours and mine?
Did you ever stop to notice
All the blood we've shared before?
Did you ever stop to notice
The crying earth the weeping shores? ...
What have we done to the world?
Look what we've done
What about all the peace
That you pledge your only son?
What about flowering fields?
Is there a time?
What about all the dreams
That you said was yours and mine?
Did you ever stop to notice
All the children dead from war?
Did you ever stop to notice
This crying earth this weeping shore? ...
Did you ever stop to notice
All the blood we've shared before?
Did you ever stop to notice
This crying earth this weeping shore? ”

The Pain Of Not Being You
How can you say,
I never felt in possession of my life
until this moment, to
someone who has not felt
the each, the both?
or, I shall remember this moment
for the rest of my life
not for what it is but
for what it may yet mean?
a lifetime with a pen
may alleviate this pain
somewhat
while I write

A minute of silence
May the soul that has
Departed rest in peace
You did so much
For the world
You owe the world nothing
The world did so much for you
It is only fair for you to go to
Your place of eternal rest knowing
That the world large is not
Indebted to you
The world and you were firm friend
The world and you will be friends
When you both meet again
May the soul that has departed
Rest in peace and hanker not
After the things of the world
The wold has freed the dead
And let there be peace in Heaven
And the world will find peace

Ode To Dir. Matet
AN ODE TO DIR. MATET
By: Melvin D. Banggollay
Many were called to serve the agency
But only few had lead prudently
With a heart so kind and unselfishly
Inspiring us to serve with humility.
A model you were to the DTI Family
For you exemplified a life of beauty
And goodwill for the poor and needy
That inspired you to remain a lady.
Rest in peace we bestow upon thee
Even if you left us so untimely
To join our creator’s den of glory
For you truly deserves His mercy.
Indeed, you’re a woman of beauty
Embroidered upon your simplicity
And passion to serve unselfishly
For the well being of DTI family.
Time may vanish every verdant plain
But your great memories will remain
To inspire us to behold and proclaim
The mission you left to our domain.
Everybody knew you never stained
The leadership that you’ve claimed
For you’re an honor to DTI’s gain
Being a trusted servant so ordained.
Short was your life glory but certain
That its meaning is more than fame
For you nurtured it without stain
And made you’re best without refrain.
Dedicated to the family of the late Dir. Marites Damian, Regional Director of DTI-CAR

A Christmas Carol
On a early summer day
while shepherds fed their flocks hay
all the earth was rejoicing
about the coming king.
Angels sang, appeared in great glory
and told scared men the blessed story,
early in the morn, of the child being born,
the Prince of peace, the creator God, Jesus the Christ
for whom a manger sufficed.
A star guided wise men right through the night
they followed its bright light
and over a stable it halted its flight
where they found the child they sought
and bowed before the king
seeing the mild maiden mother glowing
with admiration, worshipping Him,
they gave the treasures that they brought
and the world was at peace
while God walked among men
and now like then:
giving out His love that never ceases.

You Came Out Of Nowhere
I thought I heard a sound
Somebody calling out to me
So I turned around
Strangers as far as I could see
Drifting through this crowd
Barely awake form last nights dream
I call your name out loud
I never thought youd answer
You came out of nowhere baby
Just when I felt like giving up
Do you know where Ive been searching
Everywhere this side of reality
This side of eternity
Whyd you take so long
Man I thought youd never get here
I waited for the dawn
Never finding you was my one fear
Its dark before its light
And just when you cant believe your eyes
Morning breaks bright and the storm is over
You came out of nowhere baby
Just when I felt like giving up
Do you know where Ive been searching
Everywhere this side of reality
This side of eternity
You came out of nowhere baby
Just when I thought it was all too much
Do you know where Ive been searching
Everywhere this side of reality
This side of eternity
It might have rained for the rest of my life
But you came along
It could have been pain for all of these nights
But you came to stay
You came out of nowhere baby
Just when I felt like giving up
Do you know where Ive been searching
Everywhere this side of reality
This side of eternity
