Rise Again, Manny! Poem by Alon Calinao Dy

Rise Again, Manny!



Rise, Manny, rise!
Be proud and be brave.
You're still my boxing hero,
A pride to every Filipino.

Rise, Manny, rise!
Hold your head high.
The world is talking about you,
No wonder people still love you.

Rise, Manny, rise!
Make another fight if you want.
But please, be careful next time.
Don't let a lucky punch knocks you out.

Rise, Manny, rise!
Those fools can say whatever...
And in this battle of life,
'Never Say Never.'

Rise again, Manny!

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Manny Pacquiao is an inspiration to all Filipinos. He helped thousands of people in the Philippines especially the poor. He gave them money when they were sick, buillt a hospital for them, donated millions of pesos when there was a big calamity in the Philippines and to the extent gave jobs for those jobless people.


Manny is a hero in the Philippines. Now it's a big slap in the face for every Filipino that there was a International Singer who made bad remarks for Manny after his shocking defeat to Juan Manuel Marquez. Of course, A loss is a loss. However, you cannot blame those fans of Manny to get angry after these bad comments by the International Singer.

By the way, Congrats to JMM, you are a true Mexican warrior.
