Poets of the Caribbean Listed in the Top 25 Caribbean Book Blogs

 Hello,

I am so honored that Poets of the Caribbean has been included in the top 25 Caribbean Book Blogs. Thank you so much for your support over the years. When I started the blog in 2010, I wanted to showcase to the world amazing Caribbean poets and the rich writing heritage from this region. Your comments, suggestions, and continued readership have inspired me to continue to post these past fourteen years.

For more information on the other blogs on the list, here is the link: Top Caribbean Book Blogs

As National Poetry Month winds down, I hope you continue to seek out and learn about more Caribbean poets, and I hope to continue to bring you exciting posts about their lives, poetry contests, book festivals and my own publications.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Celebrating National Poetry Month 2024!

 Happy National Poetry Month 2024, dear readers!

I trust that you have been engaged in either writing, reading, or attending poetry readings during National Poetry Month this year. Do let me know what poems and authors you have been enjoying.

For my part, while browsing through a bookstore late March, I bought Pablo Neruda's Veinte Poemas de Amor y Una Cancion Desesperada (Twenty Love Poems and a Song of Despair), and I have been thoroughly enjoying the collection. Interestingly, this year is the 100th anniversary of its publication. If you are a big Neruda fan like me, and you have read from this collection, let me know what your thoughts are on it.

So excited to share as well that my second poetry collection, is now available on Amazon at the link below:

Questions in Jamaican Patois

Thanks in advance for your support!
