CANVASS—2(blue) -revised
(Devoted to Mrs Catrina Heart a great poet of Phillipines)
I like blue sky
deep blue sea
your blue eyes
depth of which is unfathomable
I like the way the blue sky
sees its face in the sea
I fail to understand
wasn’t it your eyes on me?
I like the delft-blue porcelain
glazed with oxide of tin
that carried along
three
dynasty of Italy,
France and Spain
but I never liked
the blue-blood royals
whose uncontrolled passion,
greed
have destroyed
village after village
in the name of making them loyal
