2. Magnetic Poem in Spanish - Cada Vez (Every Time)

An original poem in Spanish & translated to English by the author. Written in a day between various restaurants in the neighborhood, with a little bit of assistance from the neighbors of Northbeach.

A poem written in two places with the assistance of Northbeach neighbors: Compton’s Coffee and Waystone (a wine bar)

This poem was written in Spanish, so I share the Spanish version first. See the English translation below.

Cada Vez

Cada vez
El lugar escribe la señal 
De la que ensciende la pasión

Hay un jardín vestido en verde
Allá no estan las flores delicadas
Con ropa de pétalos dulces
Para seducir

Pero los pájaros cantan --
Un regalo de música deliciosa

Aqui hay un momento en la que
El corazón disfruta de una vida
De felicidad y belleza

I wrote this poem in a day in which I spent several hours doing writerly things (reading, journaling, and writing this poem), in a local café and then a wine bar (also in the neighborhood). I will share my day and how the neighbors got involved in helping me with the poem, in my next episode.

Stay tuned!

NOW, THE POEM IN ENGLISH:

Every Time

Every time
The place writes the sign
From which the passion is ignited

There is a garden dressed in green
There are no delicate flowers there
With clothes of sweet petals
To seduce

But the birds sing --
A gift of delicious music

Here there is a moment when 
The heart enjoys a life
Of happiness and beauty
