Vida is a Regalo and Milagro

An English-Spanish bilingual poem

This vida

We take for granted

Is a regalo

A milagro.

Don’t let it

Go to waste

Do what makes

You feel feliz.

For me, it’s:

Time in the jardín

Digging the tierra.

With my libros

Reading and learning.

Being in naturaleza

Soaking its belleza.

Nurturing my niños

Preparing them for the future.

Dabbling in creativity

To feel unique.

Tell about you

My amigos.

How are you

Making the most

Of this viaje?

Translation:

Life is a Gift and a Miracle

This life we take for granted is a gift, a miracle. Don’t let it go to waste. Do what makes you feel happy.

For me, it’s spending time in the garden, digging in the soil. It’s being with my books, reading, and learning. It’s being in nature, soaking in its beauty. It’s nurturing my children, preparing them for the future. It’s dabbling in creativity to feel unique.

Tell me about you, my friends. How are you making the most of this journey?
