MI HIJO LLEGÓ UNA VEZ CON UNA MATA DE CHILE TENÍA FRUTOS POR DOQUIER TRAÍA LA RAÍZ TAMBIÉN TOMÉ MIS TIJERAS VERDES LAS QUE SIRVEN PARA PODAR CORTÉ LAS RAMAS INERTES ELLA COMENZÓ A PIZCAR YO ME LLEVÉ AQUELLA PARTE DEL ARBUSTO MUTILADO HICE UN HOYITO EN LA TIERRA Y AHÍ QUEDÓ TRASPLANTADO PARA SANAR LAS HERIDAS QUE YO MISMO LE CAUSÉ USÉ BARNIZ Y PINTURA DE ESE MODO LA CURÉ. SUS FRUTOS SOBRE LA MESA NOS SIRVIERON DE ALIMENTO AMOR, PACIENCIA Y DESTREZA SE UNIERON EN ESTE TIEMPO. TODOS LOS DÍAS VOY A VERLA LE PONGO AGÜITA DEL CIELO LE ARRANCO LA MALA HIERBA LE CUENTO MIS DESCONSUELOS. AL VER SUS HOJITAS NUEVAS ALCÉ MIS OJOS AL CIELO AGRADECÍ POR MIS PENAS Y AQUELLOS MOMENTOS NEGROS. LAS PENAS QUE NO TE MATAN SOLAMENTE TE HACEN MÁS FUERTE PARA ENFRENTAR LAS QUE SALGAN MIENTRAS QUE LLEGA LA MUERTE.
