Poem for Abba
By: Margaret
Inspired from: PHILIPPINE MYTHOLOGY: BATHALA OR ABBA. & Pinoy ethnoastronomy: How the stars guided our ancestors - FlipScience - Top Philippine science news and features for the inquisitive Filipino.
Mankind’s protector
Loved a mortal woman
Who bore 3 daughters
Associated to lightning
Yet said to be kind
Long as it isn’t abusing
With his 3 children
Rules the skies
While guiding mankind
No matter the age
Or generation to unfold
May Abba continue
To watch mankind
Should he be forgotten
In the folds of time
Comfort those injustice
Love those sincere
And guide the seekers
To answers found
From nature itself
For the present era

Offering a pig for Hyades
A hidden gem
Written in scripts
About a woman’s Anito
Deity of hunting
Commonly called Tres Marias
The belt of Orion
May Balatik guide
Nature’s voyagers
To fate’s destination
For all of time
In agriculture and hunting
In every generation
