Arménio Adroaldo Vieira e Silva (Portuguese pronunciation: [ɐɾˈmɛniu ɐdɾuˈaldu viˈejɾɐ i ˈsilvɐ]; born January 29, 1941 in Praia, Cape Verde) is a Cape Verdean writer, poet and journalist. He began his activity during the 1960s, collaborated in SELÓ, Boletim de Cabo Verde, Vértice (Coimbra) review, Raízes, Ponto & Vírgula, Fragmentos, Sopinha de Alfabeto and others.

Three of his poems— Lisboa (1971), Quiproquo and Ser tigre— can be found on the CD Poesia de Cabo Verde e Sete Poemas de Sebastião da Gama by Afonso Dias.[1]

He won the Camões Prize in 2009 on the work O Poema, a Viagem, o Sonho.[2]

His poems were celebrated by Mito Elias (also simply as Mito) in Praia and Mindelo in 2011.[3]

He started a series of "versions of books, poetic and miscellaneous notes" on June 2013 with O Brumário, later Derivações do Brumário and recently Fantasmas e Fantasias do Brumário in 2014.
