Poems

ConnectHook Sep 2017
I was poetically perusing
the poems at HP
when I stumbled
upon such fantastic flowing verse
en español

that I had to tell the poetess
she had a divine gift . . .

that her work was
rubendariesco . . .

that her verse was far better
than most of the slop
one finds at this site . . .

After several minutes
I realized I had been reading
the works of one of Latinoamérica's
most celebrated poets:

Juana de Ibarbourou (1892-1979)

y que Dios me había hecho una buena broma  poética
