ZAMBOANGA TREE HOUSE<br>
Elizabeth Stafford<br>
Pasonanca Park Tree-House<br>
September 30, 1963<br>


Pasonanca to this date continues to represent the beautiful side of Zamboanga City.
From the heart of an Acacia tree<br>
Photo courtessy Of [http://www.zamboanga.com Zamboanga.com]
Come these words from me to thee<br>
In a tree-house I now stay<br>
My third day, out Zamboanga way.<br>
 
Leafy boughs frame screen-tight windows<br>
and sky is etched in swaying palm-frond rows.<br>
 
Beyond shines the Celebes Sea<br>
while close around "my" tree<br>
Brilliant bougainvilla reaches up to me.<br>
 
The rainbow tips a bird's wing<br>
While friendly Filipino voices sing.<br>
In pretty Pasonanca Park<br>
Where Tree-House living is a lark<br>
A stream-fed pool<br>
Invites a swim that's cool.<br>
 
There's room for two<br>
But one alone "can do"<br>
With frig and lights<br>
And comfort for all rites.<br>
 
At dusk and dawn<br>
A cricket combo will help you yawn.<br>
Rare fruits tease<br>
Sun-sweet breezes please.<br>
 
How much: much No price!<br>
It's just to be nice<br>
To City Guests who stay<br>
Out Zamboanga way.<br>
 
But of pesos -- leave a few<br>
La Lavandera will wash for you.<br>
 
This sweet little scheme<br>
For enchantment - whose dream?<br>
That of Cesar Climaco, a mayor<br>
With imagination of his mind plus hair.<br>
 
For every visitor out Zamboanga Way<br>
This my heart is glad to say.<br>
