By Germaine Yia
Illustrations by Abi Goy

Splish, splash, swoosh I go

in search of the rainbow's end.

The pliant bamboo watching me

whispers as it bends:

"Oh little child, oh little child,

what treasures will you find?

What secrets will you uncover

to please your curious mind?"

"A trunk of gold? A bag of sweets?

Or a shimmering magic toy?"

I say to it: "Oh I don't know.

This search is but a joy."

Germaine, 21, is a fourth year Economics student at the University of the Philippines in Diliman, Quezon City.
