Sometime ago, when no one was looking, BoUNCe Magazine invited poetry submissions on the topic "Love." This month, we would like to showcase the creative talents of several gifted individuals. The following are hand-picked poems that display the stunning style and audacious ambition of these contributors.
Mi Patatita Bonita
By Guillermo Guerrero
Digame, patatita
¿Por qué lloras?
A mí sus muchos ojos
se parecen como diamantes.
Tu eres la más hermosa
de todas las verduras.
My Pretty Little Potato
[Translation by Staff]
Tell me, pretty little potato
Why are you crying?
To me your eyes
seem like diamonds.
You are the most beautiful
of all the vegetables.
Courtship
By Grog
Pretty in lion skin,
True love hurt like club on head,
Drag you to my cave.
