The Philippines has lost more than it knows
With the passing of Miriam behind it's wheel..
Trees will grow upon the very sun long before
The affects of losing her become ever so real..
An inspiration to so many her entire life long
Never just another star in the Philippine sky..
Every time she spoke always pure wisdom
Such irreplaceable knowledge one cannot deny..
I imagine many will quote her over all of time
Born to be to set so many free since she began..
Never being afraid to correct mistakes some made
Captain of her own soul ever positive in this land..
Doing more within her own time her very own way
With a charismatic integrity honesty all of her own..
Endless being better off for her being in their lives
All within the Philippines thanks to her has grown..
Never will be forgotten or replaced come what may
A one of within all time and future still yet to be..
Wishing ever so many to rise to her being in this life
To her principles her values her honesty her integrity..
