A Letter To The Bullies (POEM)


A Letter To The Bullies

They have nowhere to hide,
They want friend in their side,
They're sick of pretending,
A fake smile in the ending.

 There's a poison in your lips,
That makes them cry all day night,
They don't want to hear any beeps,
Cause it makes them melt and fright.

There's a shining metal in your hands,
That makes other people clap their hands,
When hits them they're like pieces of sands,
Dragged down by the waves in the shore sands.

They want you to be their friends,
Laughing, singing in the street,
But you never ever lend,
Instead, threw them like a seat.

Your strength and words were mind-blowing,
They tied rope around their collar,
Drowned themselves without knowing,
And plunged in high alcazar. 

Yes, it is your very fault,
You must be inside a vault,
With electrifying volt,
To make you realize it's your fault.

Just have a shame in your part,
Just like dart pinned in your heart,
Just stop being a tyrant,
Just like be a little ant.

How My Brother Leon Brought Home A Wife


      The story started when Leon and his younger brother were both waiting for the arrival of Leon's wife, Maria, riding in a carretela.  As Baldo saw his older brother's wife, he described her as lovely, tall, and beautiful. He narrated their journey to Nagrebcan, their hometown. Leon wondered why Baldo drove them to the Waig instead on the Camino Real. Baldo answered that he drove them to the Waig because their father told him to follow the Waig. The Waig route served as a test for the wife to see if she could really live in a province which was very different in a life in a city where she lived. While travelling, Maria described the place of Leon as clean, and free of dust and smoke. Maria admitted of having some fears if the father of Leon would not accept her as to be his daughter-in-law because she may not able to survive the life in the province. When they got home, Leon's family talked to Maria. Baldo and his father had a conversation about what had happened while they were travelling. The father asked Baldo if Maria was afraid in their place. Baldo answered that Maria was not afraid and instead she enjoyed the journey.
      I like the story because it taught me about respect and acceptance of one's life. In order to have a harmonious and long-lasting relationship you must show respect to each other and the family. And if you really love a person you should accept who he/she is, and what he/she is.
      The writing style of the author was good because  he used figurative languages which made the story more interesting, convincing, and beautiful. The message of the story was easy to understand because it was clear and concise. The characters of the story were presented well of what were their roles. The flow or the plot or the scenes in the story were organized. The words used were appropriate. The story also taught us many moral lessons in life like one may have to sacrifice small part of one’s life in order to be happy.
