An acrostic (from the late Greek akróstichis, from ákros, 'top', and stíchos, 'verse') is a poem or other form of writing in an alphabetic script, in which the first letter, syllable or word of each line, paragraph or other recurring feature in the text spells out a word or a message. <br /> <br />Far down South China Sea <br />Indigenous brave men and women lives <br />Loyal, friendly, fearless happy people <br />Ingenious and not to be outsmarted <br />Pearl of the orient no other else in Asia <br />Islands nurtured by Mother Nature and its wonders <br />Not to fear surrender its freedom and liberty <br />Only to die and ready to struggle to self-determination <br />Race to economic prosperity <br />Ace of democracy and ingenuity <br />Challenges to fight back in defense of its sovereignty <br />Echoes people power through out the world<br /><br />Noel Horlanda<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/acrostic-filipino-race/
