DAILY DIPOLOG GLIMPSES
by Rosemarie Miranda "WEDNESDAY NIGHT" (A Dipolog Glimpse)
Another grateful day of thanksgiving
for all life's random blessings
we never falter in showing gratitude
for God's loving embrace, wide latitude
like the sun, it rises and sets for all
like the tides, it ebb and rises in a cycle
Each day we welcome with anticipation
on what lies ahead for all creations.

"BORROWED LIGHT"
(A Dipolog Glimpse)
The magic of the night knows no barrier
the darkness holds a golden mystery
weaving a tapestry of dreams surreal
in its reality, tugging the heartstrings
caught by skillful snaps of a creature
on the lookout for beauty in the mundane
no need to search elsewhere on foreign soils
all the splendor of the spell-bound moon
holds captive the artistic streak
who wouldn't swoon in the darkness
highlighted by the gold of the sea
truly this resembles life in its entirety
there is always the expectation of darkness
but the beckoning lights are the hope
that despite the darkness there is a borrowed
light
