To continue our celebration of National Poetry Month, Milwaukee poet Carmen Alicia Murguia recalls a special trip to Kansas City:
PARA JODI EN KANSAS CITY
Este Verano
me
monté
en
un avión
que
aterrizó
En
tus
brazos.
Y
mientras
me acostaba
en
el
agua
yo
soñaba
que
TE
alimentaba
con
igos.
FOR JODI (IN KANSAS CITY)
This Summer
I
took
an Aeroplane
that
landed
into
her
arms.
And,
as I laid
upon
the pool
water
I
dreamt
of
feeding
HER
figs.
