Until the day I die.

BORINQUEN
is the name of my land
Before the conquerers came
Before the poverty
Before the blood shead
my people
de lo Boriquen island
Tene la sangre
de los Santos
lo sangre de Dios
He sleeps in our hearts
Tu corazon
they call it
We were Taino Indians
Till we had to hide our skin
We were once naked
Our land clothed us
Our bodies
beautiful in its natural form
Our fruits of our land
was pure
Our skin
the color of gold
Our waters
clear as sky
Then one day
we died
We now hide
in the blood
of the spanish pride
We are still alive ….

The Taíno are an Arawak people who were indigenous peoples of the Caribbean and Florida. At the time of European contact in the late 15th century, they were the principal inhabitants of most of Cuba, Jamaica, Hispaniola (presently Haiti and the Dominican Republic), and Puerto Rico in the Greater Antilles, the northern Lesser Antilles, and the Bahamas, where they were known as the Lucayans. They spoke the Taíno language, one of the Arawakan languages.

~IN HER OWN WORDS~
“IOTD” is image of the day, a concept I came up with. I teach visual meditative therapy – or in easy terms – a mini mental holiday. For some people it is very difficult for them to get their image right. I post an image a day for people to use in their mini mental vacay. Some are serious, some are silly, and some are just beautiful!”
