thrown in the trash
lucky tree branch
brought it home and
into three equal parts
and poured water into three glass jars
one by one
and planted them
one
two
After the days
At the end of 15 days
little roots came up
after a few more days
sprouted from the stem
and leaves began to appear
and then
two of them had roots in the water
and one with leaves in the water
and one of them
I had planted it upside down
the roots,
invisible outside the water
every time we laugh and talk
they danced
in the air and
the ones in the water
give us the luckiest of fortunes
for our good futures.
