(Por: Karla Wagener - en El estilo de Gabriela Mistral. Despues de escuchar la homilia del Obispo por video desde la Catedral de BA. 

Jajaja, El chiste es que mi hijo se llama Pascual Angelo Napolitano - es decir PAN).

No Tengo mucho para darles.
Unas poesias y canciones,
Un corazon contrito,
Un animo sentido,
Esperanzas para El Bien.
Comidas que he cocinado,
Especias, melon, e hierbas
De mi Jardin...
y flores, unas frutas,
Refugio brindado con
Calidez.

Lo Poco que Les puedo dar
Lo brindo libremente
Y Creo firmamente
En la grandeza
Del Espiritu De Dios.

Asi dejo tambien unos chistes,
Y mi alma con mayor
Afan, 

Y les brindo mi prominente PAN,

En Este dia de Maria
Y la Concepcion .

 LOS SECRETOS DE LA KARNADA

(By: Karla Wagener (alias, La KARNADA) Pardon me! I can't help but send another one today! 🙏 Like Dad used to sing to us when we were kids, "Fishy, fishy in the brook. Daddy catch you with a hook. Mommy fries you in her pans. Babies eat you like good humans"! - I changed it a little).

Listen closely and I will tell
The secrets of life's wishing well.
The best kind of bait
Knows how to wait.
Listens very closely,
Goes forth even if it's frosty.
Keeps clear of obstacles
Or rocks.
Is oblivious to clocks.
And humbly does that job,
Persistently, does not sob.
Goes unknown, is under cover,
And all the fishies in the Sea
Give her boughs of four leaf🍀 clover!

Hoping my poem gets to the right ears!

DIFFICULT, NOT IMPOSSIBLE!

     Mosab Abu Toha)
   "It's only words
     And words are all I have"...

Many times I have felt
There were no more words
To form another poem.

Then somehow they
Begin to form on their own.
Deep felt words drawn out
Of a restless compassion and Great Hope.

Hope that sees creation
And knows that somehow
Even the worst, most horrible
Events
Will somehow be reconciled.

So I share these words
Freely
With all of you
Convinced there is
Meaning and purpose
In all we truthfully do.

That we can be guided in life
Listening to the inner music
Of the beats of our hearts.

And I have learned another
Language
And traveled to the
End of the World
So that this word of Hope
Can be heard!

Para un Adviento positivo!

 El SUEÑO DEL ADVIENTO

(Por: Karla Wagener.
Me desperté a la mañana con este poema en mi mente). Traducido del Ingles! - se pierden un Poco la rima!)

No tengo todas las respuestas,
Pero he visto
Poderes místicos
A partir de acciones sencillas
De bondad y amor.

Sin haber tenido todas las respuestas,
He visto algún tipo de Magia
Guíarme en la dirección correcta
Cuando parecía que no habia salidas.

A veces parecía que
Nadie tenia respuestas;
Sin embargo, hay algo
En la oración y creyendo;
Y en invocar al nombre de alguna profeta.

No tengo todas las respuestas
Pero si esperanza y 

razones confirmados.

Así que me acerco para transmitir
Todo lo que he aprendido.

Aunque no tenemos
Todas las respuestas,
Tenemos algunas.
Y la mejor manera de llegar a 
La luz prometedora del Adviento
Es en hacer diligentemente
¡Lo que es más correcto!

No lo sé todo
Pero como es sabido...
Hay fuerzas mayores. 

¡Prometidos y para ser demonstrados!

For a positive Advent time!

 ADVENT DREAM

(By: Karla Wagener.
I woke up this morning with this poem on my mind).

I don't have all the answers,
But I have seen
Mystic powers
From simple actions
Of kindness and love.

Not having all the answers,
I have seen some kind of
Magic
Lead me in
The right direction
When there seemed
No way out of
Dead end streets.

At times there seemed to be
No one with answers;
Yet there's something
In prayer and believing;
In calling out a prophet's name.

I don't have all the answers
But have hope and reasons
Confirmed,
So I reach out to transmit
All I have learned.

Although we don't have
All of the answers,
We have some.
And the best way to 
Advent's promising light
Is diligently doing
What's most right!

I don't know everything.
But as it is known...
There are greater forces
Pledged to be shown!
