I just received a forwarded email regarding the plan to organize all the Pangasinan Associations of North America, Canada and everywhere else into an INTERNATIONAL FEDERATION OF PANGASINAN ASSOCIATIONS. Well, it's about time and I can't wait for this to materialize. I hope this is not another "anlong ya imbalikas ed dagem."



On the other hand, here's another sonnet for our Governor-elect Victor Aguedo Agbayani. This is my second poem addressed to him. I too believe that poetry does not necessarily belong to writers and poets, but leaders too, as their keen interest in poetry will help them understand people's aspirations.



sonito 151



para ed sika Ama na Luyag

say mapalayug ya Pangasinan

tan masimoon a pangilugay

so yaoat mi'd mapalar mon agew



alioan mabolik ya balikas

so yabet mi'd sikayo no ag ta

say piugagep tan say pilalek

katekep to'y matoor ya dasal



say maaliguas tan mabulaslas

ya panagbilay na mibabaley



say kanepega'y kailalakan

ya ontonton ed saray aoiran



tan ma-Caboloan ya panuley

a mansiansia'd egpang na aoaran
