"Forbidden Garden"
By Jose R. Gonzalez
Zona 3, Guatemala, Guatemala City
Walls covered with rainbows made of flowers,
Memories of the songs of the widows
Still haunt me like the souls
that will never reach the promise Garden.
I feel at peace with the image of your Gates.
Most of the people that have cross them
Never leave your this enchanted land
They grown roots like the vines of the rainforest.
I was the the wolf that once hunted outside
this dead forest.
I miss your breeze caressing my cheeks
but I'll find another playground in this green earth.
