WASTED EFFORTS
Human sometimes
Wasted efforts
Wants Endless desires
Loves
Jealousies
Even a bird sometimes
Wasted flat its wings
While flies in the sky
Wasted efforts
Everything as it should be
Wherever self has to go
Wheresoever it has to end
Whatever it has to be
Everything as it is
The rest wasted efforts.

ARTISAN
In a corner of the earth, an artisan cherishes her loom, which she prepared with colorful thread.
She is a woman who embroiders with love and dedication, blankets that tell stories of the land and its people.
She embroiders fish that swim in a river of colors and textures, and birds that fly, with wings that stretch toward the sky.
She also embroiders masks of her ancestors, with eyes that seem to see, with ancient wisdom passed down by her grandmothers from generation to generation.
Each thread, each stitch, each color is a message sent,
through time and space, to those who know how to listen.
The artisan is surrounded by her creations, with a heart full of pride, and a spirit that is free.
She is a bearer of culture, and her art is a reflection of the beauty and wisdom of her people.

My Mom (In Memory)
She wasn’t the rising sun,
but the gentle breeze of dawn
that caressed my face.
A faithful companion,
a sturdy oak tree in the storm,
she knew how to console my childhood tears,
transforming them into fresh dew.
A mother of four,
a juggler of time and love,
while Dad sailed the seas,
she was the safe harbor,
the beacon that guided our dreams.
She was the most beautiful flower in the garden,
with the sweet scent of jasmine
that filled our home in Concepción
del Uruguay, Entre Ríos.
Kind, generous heart,
a mighty river of affection,
loved by all,
she left a trail of light
with every step.
My mom is not just a memory,
but the constant melody
that resonates in my soul.
She is the star that guides my path,
the warm hug that comforts me,
the unconditional love that
sustains me,
even though she is no longer
physically present.
