big words from one little guy

There's really no introduction that can do these words justice, instead perhaps a brief description of the person that wrote them. Meet Miguel Ernesto Colon Landrón, an 8-year old boy living in Puerto Rico, lucky enough to have some fiercely strong women at his side: Graciela, Inés, and Abuela the marvelous. Kindly translated from Spanish to English by Ms. Inés, please enjoy the musings of a young lad living more than 1,600 miles away but with a heart right here at home:

Mi alma
Cuando la gente
va a la guerra,
mi alma es como un rey,
tambien
comandante,
comandando
la paz.

(translation): My Soul
When people
go to war,
my soul is like a king,
also
commander,
commanding
peace.

La perla
La perla de plata
la perla de mi alma,
lleva vida en su almeja.
Esta perla
no solo
es linda,
sino que
vive
y nunca muere.

(Translation): The Pearl
The silver pearl
my soul's pearl,
carries life in its shell.
This pearl
is not only
beautiful,
but it
lives
and never dies.
