1) End Poem
Wherever you are today-
Is where you were meant to be;
It's where God, dotted the
'i' and the 't'?!
2) God's Angels
God asked his angels:
"Why do you look so sad?"
Responded one angel:
"Sir, we can't find the shade."
3) An Empty Space
Out of wisdom one will wait,
travel far for love; the thirst
will not kill them. When death
arrives what will you tell it-
explain: why the empty space?
Shyness and fear will not
explain your surrender to your
mysterious veil. Out of wisdom
one will wait, travel far for love;
the thirst will not kill them. But
they will find it, be it in a winter
blizzard, or a cozy restaurant.
4) Onto the Mountains
(The Andes)
I shall blend-in, into the
Mountains-
Into the faintest thin
Shadows
of the mountains!
Like the moss on moistened
Stone
Like a leaf blown far from
Home?
(freshly fallen)!
I shall blend-in, clinging
To the mountains-
Into its faintest thin
Shadows
5) Dead Children
Breaking stones-
Who breaks stones?
Only shadowy faces
With grieving bones.
I have lost my
Children to the devil-
All but one; and
Now I break stones
With a grieving face
And aging bones?.

1) Poema final
?"Dondequiera que t? est?s hoy d?a-
Es donde se propuso estar;
Esto es donde Dios apunto la
"i" y la "t"?!.
2) Los ?ngeles de Dios
Dios pregunt? a sus ?ngeles:
"?Por que parecen tan tristes?"
Respondi? un ?ngel.
"se?or, nosotros no podemos encontrar la sombra".
3) Un espacio vac?o
De la sabidur?a uno esperara,
Viajes lejos para el amor;
La sed no los matar?. Cuando la muerte
Llegue ?que le dir?s de esto?-
Explicando: ?Por qu? el espacio vaci??
La timidez y el miedo no
Explicaran tu rendici?n a tu
Misterioso velo. De la sabidur?a
Uno puede esperar, viaje lejos para el amor;
La sed no los matar?. Pero
Ellos se encontraran, ser? ello en una ventisca
De invierno, o en un restaurante acogedor
4) Ni?os Muertos
Rompiendo piedras ?
?Qui?n rompe piedras?
Solo caras sombr?as
Con huesos penosos.
He perdido
A mis Ni?os para el diablo ?
Todos excepto uno; y
Ahora rompo piedras
Con una cara penosa
Y huesos envejecidos.
