El Presumido
my dad made a grotto
out of cement
pa que abuela could
put La Virgen de San Juan
in the frontyard
by the double windows
con las flores moradas
their name eludes me now
la Virgen must have
done its job
because abuela lived to be
a hundred
hope La Virgen bears in mind
I was abuela’s favorite

Hell yeah.
"pa que abuela could
put La Virgen de San Juan"
beautiful alliteration, the way English and Spanish merge is seamless...
gracias for the inspiration.
Thanks,Ernesto.
