All My Tomorrows Poem by Winston Soldevilla

In a prick of a moment
My thought lingered and bent.
A bursting cry
Caught up my naked eye.
A babe leaped with gladness
Unknowingly inside him miseries.
As he grew older
Things were getting murkier.
Innocence gripped his sight
With irrevocable height.
Without any doubt of view
I came with embellished wings to rescue-
Dispelling the vestige of perplexity
To shadow his thoughts into perpetuity.
While on the verge of deliverance
He turned to me at an instance.
His eyes blinked in surprise
For I brought him again in paradise.
Suddenly tears rolled down his eyes
Thanking me with no disguise.
Engulfed with gratifying emotion
He enveloped me with such attention.
As we were in our exchange of ungrudging recognition
Into my ears, in sweet air, he whispered jubilation.
In expressing his intention,
He clasped my hands with great devotion.
Very well said in lines of self expression
Finally, words flooded with such adoration.
So, he said:
“All my tomorrows depended on your love.
My flight from oblivion was cause by heaven above.
As a seed culled imperfectly
I sprouted without shield dangerously.
With innocence as lofty as the mountain’s highest peak
I suffered the brunt for I was weak.
Then at an instant, you were such a beauty
You walked into my life and showed me hope with serenity.
So, may I say with deepest gratitude?
I love you with all my heart’s beatitude.”
