Happy Mother’s Day!

Happy mother's Day

Well, today is Mother’s Day! I would like to wish a Happy Mother’s Day to my own mother and all mothers of the world, even those mothers whose children have already left the nest and expecting mothers. Although, Mother’s Day comes once a year, you should love and cherish your mother all year round.

Though I’m currently not on Saba to wish my mother a Happy Mother’s Day face to face, I intend to give her a call and read her a poem I wrote some time back, which I will share with you all as well. This is quite a metaphorical poem, which is something that I do not do very often except here and that is because I truly do love my mother ( Both of my parents actually) just as I love life itself and even more. After all you only have one mother. Remember that. 😉 Continue reading

All About Me!

Hello, dear friends! As you all may already know, my name is Angie Ignacio. Nice to meet you or as they say in Japanese: hajimemashite/ はじめまして! I am originally from the small Dutch island in the Caribbean called Saba. I am 25 years old and attend college in The Netherlands. I am studying Communication Management and currently in my third year. So almost finished, whew!

I like doing a lot of things although there are times that I overwhelm myself as well. So I may sometimes stop myself and slow down which I have been doing for a while now, lol. Some of the things I do is write poetry whenever I am in the inspirational mood or what I like say “Whenever the mood hits me”. The same goes for my novel writing and song lyrics writing. I need to be in a certain state of mind to achieve all of these things. If I just write without having a purpose for it then it will all be for naught. Continue reading

I’m Finally Published!

Hello everyone! As you all may already know, or not, my first poetry book was published on January 8, 2015. I have been waiting for the day when I would get the chance to publish my work and I am really happy. No words can describe how happy I was when it was first published. I will be displaying one poem from my I’m Only Human poetry book called ‘I love you‘.

This poetry book expresses some of the emotions I have experienced growing up and those I have witnessed in others. These emotions may include love, self hate, contentment and more. This is why the title is called I’m Only Human. If you would like to read more of my poems please purchase the book. This book is available in both e-book and printed format. Continue reading
