I.T. of Life

by: Allan Cartagenas


Life is like a software
And your physical body is the hardware
Sometimes you're a freeware
And sometimes a shareware

We may tend to be an open source
In which we share the resource
Sometimes we tend to be proprietary
Thus protecting ourselves from piracy


Our lives undergo programming
Along the way we do debugging
With error detection & correction
To avoid run-time corruption

Sometimes we are not feeling well
Due to some viruses that dwell
Sometimes we experience general protection fault
And we tend to stop and HALT

Our relationship to others is like networking
Families, relatives, friends & colleagues interconnecting
Pictures, letters & cards we are sharing
But most of the times, communicating

Lifes' cherished moments must be captured
Lifes' frustrations, success & accomplishments should be recorded
Unlike a computer that can be rebooted,
Life can neither be rebooted nor restarted.

Nice, IT inspired! But if PB extincts, I already know where I would be seeing myself - in the field of technical writing :D

A Heart For You Beats High

Image courtesy of Horvath What mattereth in a calm heart, that from you I cannot depart? A genial feeling overpowereth my smart, like a tranquil beauty of a portrayed art. What ariseth in a sleeping heart, that you had always been a part? A life filled with happiness, joy, and mirth, seemeth to me that I am in a new birth; What hath thou doest to me, that I have such love to thee? A weak heart doth jumpeth with glee, like a bird in mighty doth flee! Background: 04Nov1998 @ 1029a, the poem's title was derived from the last verse of Rizal's poem entitled " To Josephine " which reads "late por ti un Corazon" in spanish. This poem was inspired by one silent lady whom I have fallen in love with back in my College days (aherm!).

Kalawakan

Kalawakang walang hanggan, kalawakang 'di lumilisan; Parang langit ang kapangyarihang, natatanaw sa dalampasigan. Sa dilim ng gabi'y, liwanag ang iyong taglay; Sa paggising ng umaga'y, pag-asa ang naka-alalay. O ano'ng hiwaga ang nadarama! sa kagandahan mong kahanga-hanga; Tunay at walang hanggang ligaya, sa iyo, nadama't nagsimula.
