 Poem 

14

 Spring came,

and the colors covered the gray,

but everything is blurry, 

nothing is clear. 

And I wonder

when the pain will go.

I'm broken. 

I still remember that February

that I have been trying to fix,

that I want to let go 

But it is not the same in anymore. 

You're gone, and again

I find myself swimming in,

the only thing I have left,

the memories and the pain. 

But maybe this time

the pain will no longer remember

and then you can find me  

in September.

 Short story: Herny the cat

By: Brenda Figueroa, María Hernández & Janeth Rodríguez

Hello, I am Herny the cat and despite being only 2 years old I know a lot about life thanks to the great adventures that I live every day. So that you understand what I'm talking about, I will tell you something incredible that happened to me yesterday.

I adore flowers, I like them because they are all very different and you can find many colors, but I had never known that some flowers spoke.

I was in the garden as usual admiring each of the flowers that Jess has in her garden, Jess is the person who gives me all her love even though I am not very affectionate with her. Though, the one thing I Iove the most is when she gives me food that I like the most, it is really delicious and I really enjoy it….

Well, I'm changing the subject so soon, that's the way I am.

Like I was saying, I was by my garden or more exactly in Jess's garden, admiring the flowers. They are very pretty flowers, there are pink flowers, yellow flowers, orange flowers, pink flowers, wait I think I already mentioned pink flowers…

Oh, I'm doing it again!

Well anyways, I was in Jess's beautiful garden right next to the beautiful fountain, it is a very beautiful fountain, it has two beautiful angels and it is painted a beautiful blue….

Sorry, I changed the subject again!

I was next to that beautiful fountain when suddenly...

“Herny, it's time to eat. Herny!”

Oh that's Jess, she's calling and if I don't go now I'll miss out on a delicious meal, I think I'll tell you about this some other day, see you soon!
