by Meriam B. Magdaong How nice it would be, For the little girl, me. Who was once everybody's baby. But then grew up like anybody. The little girl who loves to twirl, Seems to lost all her glitters, And all her shimmers Turns into shudders. How nice it would be, To go back to little old me. Where everybody likes me, And treats me like a barbie. Wait? Barbie? You mean, a toy, that's irreplaceable? When it's not anymore playable? Like it's disabled? Yeah, I am a Barbie . But not like the one on the shelf, I can fight for myself, I am not the little old me, Who everyone thought I should be. The glitter may fade, Atleast, I am not on everyone's parade. So good bye little girl, Though our memories stays, I fear. Genre: Coming-of-Age Theme/s: Growth and self discovery

I did. Genre: Unrequited/Confessional Poetry Theme/s: Unreciprocated Confession

We are a big, noisy bunch, and sometimes our house feels like a big toy box. But even when there is not much space, there is always lots of love. My mama is the busiest woman in the world. Every morning, she wakes up even earlier than us to pick the juiciest mangoes and the freshest vegetables for her market stall. She works really hard so we can have yummy food on our table and a very convenient life. Papa is not afraid of any mess! He can fix a broken kitchen with a smile and cook the best meals for our whole family. He is like our own personal superhero, cleaning, cooking, and taking care of everything around the house. One of my favorite things Mama says is, "We may not have a lot of money, but we're rich in love!" And it's true! Even though things can be tough sometimes, we are always happy together. Here's m...
