I love POETRY! I have always liked writing poems. They are a type of therapy to help me when I am feeling down. I rarely share my poems with anyone. This is mainly because I view them as private parts of my life. However, I’ve decided that it is time to be a little more open and start sharing some of my creations with the world. The first poem I ever decided to share with a large amount of people was this one down below. It describes my view of San Ignacio, which is a beautiful town in the Cayo District of Belize. One of the places I truly love residing.

A Poem About San Ignacio

We may be small, but packed inside are wonders waiting to be revealed,
To those who take time out to see, to be, to feel.
Mayan pyramids showcasing the talent of the native land dwellers.
The infrastructural mindset of the indigenous, creating artifacts so stellar.
A community built upon love, trust, and commitment.
Withstanding all hardships due to persistence.
A society so majestic, so tranquil.
Nurturing people; so peaceful, so blissful.
A home to many, young and old.
Filled with kind, present youths; who continue to be bold.
Filled with future promises, just waiting to unfold.
