POEMS
Gracias Irma, that was my first
calavera ever. My husband says that one must be inspired when writing one
and that the person it's about must be your guide. Mi suegra, que en paz
descanse, wrote one for each of her children and they treasure
them. Give it a try and you might surprise
yourself. I did!
