Poetry for the Beautiful Island of Puerto Rico
Puerto Rican Soul By Migdalia Torres Puerto Rican descent I was born and Puerto Rican I will stay No matter what colors Brothers and Sisters I have; I just have to say Puerto Rico Isla del Caribe the most precious Pearl of the Sea until this very day The fountain of youth does reside here in Puerto Rico I can testify to say that your warmth and your kindness was always here to show me and lead the way An enchanted Rain Forest en “El Yunque”, will show me serenity today When I stand high up on this mountain top looking down I can hear my aunt Juana say, the Virgin Mary lives here and protects us each and every day May God Bless your Caribbean hospitality and chains of kindness which are among us each and every day Puerto Rico de mi alma, I will always love you no matter what other countries say
