Afro-Latina Reflections Part 1

Ahhhh Isla de Borinquen, Isla del Encanto
Island of Borinquen, Island of enchantment
How do I miss your coconut kisses
Your flavorful coffee
Your pristine beaches
From within my soul I hear the coconut rhythms of mi isla calling me
I sit here, freezing with a blanket
Wishing I were on your shores
with mi papi chocolate
frolicking in your waves
I hear the sweet serenade of El Coqui
my lullaby
And though I am thousand miles away
Borinquen
You are in my heart and soul
