‬ B
‭ ased‬‭on‬‭my‬‭understanding‬‭in‬‭this‬‭poem‬‭it‬‭is‬‭all‬‭about‬ ‭the‬‭beautiful‬‭spot‬
‭or‬‭location‬‭from‬‭the‬‭Philippines‬‭from‬‭the‬‭title‬‭of‬‭itself.‬‭It‬‭focuses‬‭on‬
‭describing‬‭the‬‭uniqueness‬‭of‬‭this‬‭country‬‭and‬‭featuring‬‭the‬‭beauty‬‭of‬‭not‬
‭just‬‭an‬‭island‬‭but‬‭everything‬‭that‬‭you‬‭can‬‭see‬‭here‬‭in‬‭the‬‭Philippines‬
‭from‬‭animals,‬‭seas,‬‭farms,‬‭and‬‭different‬‭types‬‭of‬‭sight‬‭seeing‬‭like‬‭sunset‬
‭and‬‭sunrise.‬

‭2.‬ B ‭ ased‬‭on‬‭the‬‭tone‬‭on‬‭how‬‭the‬‭author‬‭wrote‬‭this‬‭poem‬‭I‬‭feel‬‭the‬‭positive‬
‭vibe‬‭and‬‭full‬‭of‬‭hope‬‭and‬‭excitement‬‭the‬‭way‬‭she‬‭describes‬‭the‬‭beauty‬
‭and‬‭charm‬‭of‬‭our‬‭philippine‬‭history‬‭and‬‭culture.‬

‭3.‬ F
‭ or‬‭me,‬‭the‬‭theme‬‭of‬‭this‬‭poem‬‭is‬‭describing‬‭the‬‭uniqueness.‬‭And‬‭that‬
‭everything‬‭in‬‭this‬‭world‬‭is‬‭beautiful‬‭but‬‭it‬‭depends‬‭on‬‭how‬‭we‬‭see‬‭the‬
‭world,‬‭not‬‭just‬‭in‬‭the‬‭philippines.‬

‭4.‬ I‭ ‬‭think‬‭the‬‭main‬‭purpose‬‭of‬‭the‬‭author‬‭in‬‭creating‬‭this‬‭poem‬‭is‬‭to‬‭remind‬
‭us‬‭that‬‭we‬‭just‬‭have‬‭to‬‭appreciate‬‭small‬‭things‬‭to‬‭make‬‭it‬‭beautiful.‬
‭There’s‬‭a‬‭lot‬‭of‬‭beautiful‬‭things‬‭in‬‭this‬‭world‬‭you‬‭just‬‭have‬‭to‬‭look‬
‭around‬‭and‬‭find‬‭them.‬

‭5.‬ T
‭ he‬‭thing‬‭I‬‭like‬‭in‬‭this‬‭poem‬‭is‬‭the‬‭way‬‭the‬‭author‬‭delivers‬‭her‬‭message,‬
‭which‬‭is‬‭all‬‭about‬‭the‬‭attractiveness‬‭of‬‭the‬‭philippines.‬‭She’s‬‭promoting‬
‭our‬‭country‬‭to‬‭all‬‭over‬‭the‬‭world.‬‭This‬‭kind‬‭of‬‭action‬‭is‬‭very‬‭helpful‬‭not‬
‭just‬‭in‬‭art‬‭but‬‭also‬‭in‬‭our‬‭history‬‭and‬‭culture.‬‭And‬‭also‬‭one‬‭thing‬‭I‬‭like‬
‭about‬‭this‬‭poem‬‭is‬‭the‬‭way‬‭she‬‭structured‬‭the‬‭stanzas‬‭with‬‭rhyme‬‭and‬
‭you‬‭can‬‭feel‬‭the‬‭emotions‬‭or‬‭tone‬‭of‬‭the‬‭poem‬‭while‬‭reading.‬
