Beloved mother we dearly miss you, but we know you are with
God and without pain. We will never forget you and your
memory will continue and be passed to the new generation of
your family that did not have the opportunity to know how
loving and wonderful you were. We say our prayers and
think of you each and every day. You left a wonderful
legacy of love for all your children and their children.
Mama tu eras “la mera mera petatera de la mera capital”
Descansa en paz mama.

oy a cerrar los ojos en voz baja
voy ameterme a tientas en el sueño
En ese instante el odio no trabaja

para la muerte, que es su pobre dueño
la voluntad suspende su latido
y yo me siento tan lejos, tan pequeña

que a Dios invoco, pero no le pido
nada, con tal de compartir apenas
este universo que hemos conseguido

por las malas y a veces por las buenas.
¿Por qué este mundo soñado no es el mismo
que este mundo de muerte a manos llenas?

Mi pesadilla es siempre el optimismo:
me duermo débil, sueño que soy fuerte,
pero el futuro aguarda. Es un abismo.

No me lo digan cuando me despierte.

	Came to Believe 

	The leaves fell
	From the trees
	Last month

	The trees 
	Look dead

	But I believe
	They are alive
	And that 
	The leaves
	Will come again

	The sun set this evening
	And it became 
	Very Dark

	The world seemed abandoned
	By the light

	But I believe
	The sun will rise
	And
	Light will come again

	I wonder what it is
	That makes the leaves return
	I wonder what it is
	That brings the sun again

	I believe 
	That I will try 
	To believe 
	In something more 

	Perhaps
	In 
	Some one more.
