My Throw Pillow

Dedicated to Josephine Go, a Precious Friend

On Her Birthday,

March 7, 2016

Composed by: Lucy Lombos

My throw pillow is as attractive as my precious friend’s beauty.

Decorated with a Filipina figure, like a reigning Miss Universe

Who smiles, talks and walks with grace, elegance and dignity.

A modern Maria Clara, woman in bloom, in melody and verse.

My throw pillow is as soft as my precious friend’s heart.

Ready to listen, to have the capacity for different feelings

Like a mom’s heart that cares and easily absorbs life as an art,

Yet strong enough to carry on maternal love and quiet healings.

My throw pillow is as huggable as my precious friend’s body

I could touch and feel her warmth, fervour and gentleness

I could cuddle her physique, a character so simple not gaudy

Oh, she’s also kissable!... Truly an impression of loveliness!
