Translation of my poem ¨APUESTO¨!

¨Apuesto¨ means ¨I bet¨, and can also mean ¨good looking, or adorned¨. Sometimes, God gives us small signs that work big! In December of 2015, at a meeting of the Legion of Mary, I gave a book to the Primate of Buenos Aires, and Spiritual Director of our group, Father Alejandro Russo, an anthology made by members of Father Hernan´s Literary ¨Café¨, with a note greeting him and the two Pope in Rome. I could not have known at the time, but Father Russo was about to go to Rome. It seems to me a sign of intuition. I dedicated the Anthology, ¨Palabras of Luz¨, with the following poem, ¨I BET¨. I wrote the poem on November 22, 2015, which was the day of our Lord Jesus Christ, King of the Universe, and at the same time the day of Santa Cecilia, the Saint of Music! In ¨Palabras de Luz¨, there are two of my writings, ¨La Intuicion Suficiente¨, and a poem, ¨la Gloria de la Oliva¨, which for me are almost prophetic, and talk about my experience with songs, and which you can see in my blog. Good tidings for the year 2016 inspite of so many problems! BET Between intuition and longing. Between the prophecies of youth and desires coming true. Between daily pleadings and an uncertain reality. Hope presses on. Obligated to be humble By the threat of a talkative insatiable beast, Fulfilled promises Appear in their due time! By: Karla
