poem will take on a different
linguistic shape from off the page.)


My muse

I use you

But need you

To breathe with kiss

This and these

That make poetry

And my heart beat


transform translate
translate transform


Mi musa

Te uso

Pero te necesito

Respirar con beso

Esto y estos

Que hacen poesia

Y mi corazón latía

I am so impressed you know how to develop poetry in two languages Jeff!

Thanks Caren, but actually I don't. I used a translator and wrote in English what I wanted. It translated, and then I tweaked the English words so that they sounded more melodic in the Espanol lol.
