This afternoon Cathleen Giterson presented her first collection of poetry and at the end of the evening she officially launched her website. The book Djis un Pensamentu is a beautiful book in which both traditional and modern techniques
can be found. The book also deals with internationally known and expressive styles (which are now also written in Papiamentu.)
It contains 80 literary works. 50 poems such as liric, rhythmic, epic poetry, sonnets, sayings, pantoum, quatern, fables, acrostics, free verse poetry and shape poetry in color.
There are also 10 sub-chapters of short poetry: Haiku, Senryu, Naani, Aphorism, Limerick, Sedoka, Septolet, Clerihew, Nonet and Cinquain. There are 20 poetic prose of different lengths. The book is illustrated with 25 photos in a beautiful and colorful composition. And at the end there is a vocabulary with meanings from the lesser known poetry and many words and phrases from the past that are profound, educational and funny.
The slogan of the website is: An e-magazine to inspire, educate, raise awareness and entertain.
This afternoon, MC Glenn Thomas presented Cathleen Giterson who opened the presentation by reciting three of her poems that were greatly appreciated by the audience in attendance. The next three teenagers, Terrence Locadia, Lionella Bonifacio and Pablo Bonifacio respectively, delighted the audience with more poems.
