Trees on the Campus
"One touch of nature makes the whole world kin."
- William Shakespeare
Dr Abe V Rotor
University of Santo Tomas, Manila
Living cradle to while away the time,
to catch up with many a lost sleep;
watch out, a nap gone over the clime,
where time and opportunity slip.
Ateneo de Manila University, QC
Pendants you wear in the night,
blinking with the chilly air,
bring tidings beyond your shade,
to far places poor and fair.
Central Luzon State University, Muñoz, NE
When in bloom golden, only for a day or two;
confetti follows where the bees have gone,
in every flower is born a new life, the embryo,
seed to a tree in another place in the sun.
Tagudin, Ilocos Sur
Drynaria fern makes a natural cover
in summer when the tree lays bare.
It's like a new crown in the making.
Behold! the symbiosis of sharing.
