Ode to the Talisay
- the Autumn Tree in the Tropics
Dr Abe V Rotor
You bring the autumn where there is none;only monsoon have we, wet and dry;you lose your crown before the rains come;and at harvest time, you weep and cry.
Your ancestors left home eons agoas the continents drifted apart;divided by the cold and warm seasurviving them here in this part.
You carry their genes of four seasons,deciduous without winter snow;emerging with new crown in summer,and amihan* is your greatest show.~*Season of cool winds, Siberian High, October to December
