I Love Camiguin

Camiguin is a pear-shaped island
Lies northern tip of Mindanao
Second smallest island in the Philippines
Smallest province in Northern Mindanao.

Camiguin is rich of natural attractions
Waterfalls, hot and cold springs 
Evergreen forest fringed with sandy beach
Truly a place to convene with nature.


Oh how I love Camiguin
A place of safety or refuge
It is where my parents met and made 
Eight children. True love that 'till now they have displayed.
