JW Marriot Marquis, Miami |
By Ezzy G. Languzzi
They descended on Miami
Butterflies in a mist
Wings touching, souls dancing
Hearts open in earnest
From faraway places
Seen only in dreams
Wedded by language
Yet not all the same
colombianas
guatemaltecas
boricuas
cubanas
venezolanas
uruguayas
Y unas cuantas mexicanas
Women stunning
Unforgettable
Both in heart and mindUnforgettable
Giving and sharing
Not one unkind
Mothers, wives
Sisters, daughters
Journalists, fotógrafas
Fashionistas y artists
Butterflies embracing life
With vigor and laughter
Stars and sparkle in eyes
Aspiring to be better
After many tears and much banter
These butterflies
Returned home
Hermanas, amigas
Seeds of friendship sown
They captivated my mind
Set on fire my imagination
Mis hermanas
Mis amigas
Left me longing for more time
Mariposas bonitas
I didn't want to say, "Good-bye."
