Abuela- Amiga y Madre de Todos
No hay palabras que hagan justicia a tu sonrisa,
de dientes ligeramente torcidos hacia el sol.
No hay abrazos adecuados para demostrar tu cariño,
de corazón indomable, humilde y sincero.
No hay libros, ni autores, que compitan con tus historias,
tus innumerables cuentos relatados con elocuencia y humor, al borde de tu orilla,
en las esquinas de la cama de nuestra infancia ó entre tus acogedoras
comidas, meriendas y cenas.
No hay ley científica que explique tu fuerza,
batallando hasta el último atardecer por el final feliz de todos.
No hay canción que suene como las campanas de tu voz,
entonando por encima de la tristeza, o la misa, y alegrando la cena de cualquier niño.
No hay tamaño conocido para definir tu fé,
hacia un Dios que has llevado, trotando entre tu mar y tu monte, al alma de cada uno.
No hay rosas suficientes- sin espinas claramente- para lucir con sus colores,
toda la vida que has otorgado a esta familia
y a tu fiel compañero de ojos claros.
No hay nadie que sepa vivir sin ti,
por eso seguimos cada paso- al son de tu alegre risa de pilla y tu imborrable memoria-
andando juntos, con tus tobillos de cabra,
hacia el rayo verde.
Grandma - Friend and Mom to All
There are no words that do justice to your smile,
of teeth slightly tilted towards the sun.
There are no adequate embraces to demonstrate your tenderness,
wrapped in your indomable, humble and honest heart.
There are no books, or authors, to compete with your stories,
your innumerable tales, spoken with eloquence and humor, at the edge of your shore,
on the corners of our childhood bed, or between your homely lunches, snacks, and dinners.
There is no scientific law to explain your strength,
battling until the last sunset for everyone's happy ending.
There is no song that rings like the bells of your voice,
intoning atop the sadness, or the congregation, and brightening any child's dinnertime.
There is no known size to define your faith,
towards a God that you have taken, trotting between your ocean and your hill,
to the soul of each person.
There are not enough roses- without spines of course- to illuminate with their colors,
all the life that your have granted this family
and your loyal, clear eyed companion.
There is no one who knows how to live without you,
that is why we continue each step- to the rhythm of your playful laughter
and your indelible memory-walking together, with your small goat ankles,
towards the radiant green flash.
