Si Jun-jun og Iyang Baril

Poetry by | August 25, 2013

Si Jun-jun gipalitan og bag-ong baril-baril sa iyang papa.
“PPSHAW! PPSHAW!”
Lagsik-lagisk laway ni Jun-jun
Syagit-syagit niya gawas sa balay.
Tanan di niya gusto, iyang barilon.
Gibaril niya ang iring kay banha magmeow-meow,
gibaril niya ang iyang manghud kay di manghatag og ice candy,
gibaril niya ang iyang silingan kay di magpahiram og trak-trak.
“Unsa gusto nimo pagdako?” nangutana iyang papa.
“SUNDALO!” syagit ni Jun-jun.
