Haiku Poet Word Search

Ernesto P. Santiago for a long time had believed that poetry is his flowing (es)cape to a higher understanding of the wor(l)d. He spends all his free time between here and there, trying to learn something. He is too small for his ego. He is enough for himself. As a poet, the shape of words interests him. He is fully confident in his identity with a Filipino heart.
