STA MONICA

STA MONICA

Erle Frayne Argonza y Delago

Came 2001 did I come to see this cute tour city

By the southern San Bernardino county of California

Tagged by my father along to celebrate corporate victories

We had fun swimming partying and shopping around

Truly delightful a tourist city this one is

Where wealthy couples bought estates & homes to holiday

My father and I did spend time here too to casino

With slot machines my hands did win some chips

Enough to buy some crafts and quaff tequila in bars

Again did I return to see this wondrous tour city in 2002

Staying by Holiday Inn with biz trainees to boot

This time to hear grand lectures from gurus of success

Yet to bar & dine & drink just the same at end of learning

Nearby is a mountain range so bald and negatively vibrating

Lucky that Sta Monica brings life to the range’s dead aridity

STA. ANA

Erle Frayne Argonza y Delago


Cranes atop carabaos at work
Amid endless sights of rice fields
That merge with the mountains on their brims
Where thick canopies of trees add color
To the green canvass of the picturesque scenery
Here are the trademarks of the path
To Sta. Ana the forthcoming legend.

Reached by land from arterial roads
Where the traveler’s exhaustion is gaily relieved
By the vista of the cool blue sea
A limitless basin aplenty
With marine basics and exotics.

Soon there shall rise an industrial
Enclave whose merchandise will be sold
To foreign lands and peoples.

Fisherfolk, planters and workingmen meet
There in an unintended league
To realize that beauteous and bountiful
Nature and profitable shops & foundries
Can’t at all conceal miserly living.
