Marbles

Auuuuuuu! Auuuuuuuu! howled like a wolf Esteban, a 7-year-old boy, who enjoyed his vacation at his grandmother’s house, for him it was fun to be there not only for his family who filled him with pampering and caresses, but also for the neighborhood children, They were the same age, every morning Esteban would go out to the window and call them like a wolf Auuuuuuu! Auuuuuuu! and they responded in the same way, they were four little children: Pablo, Daniel, Juan Carlos and Esteban, they called their group the herd so different in their personalities but so similar in their tastes towards the game and the most important thing was friendship united them, respect and the desire to share, time that they made the most of because they knew that when the holidays ended they could only see each other the following year with Esteban.

The umbrella

Josefina called me and they call me «the girl with the fine umbrella», now I want to tell you,
Chocó is my hometown, surrounded by the jungle, rivers, sea, and even mangroves,
We live on what nature gives us, tasty fish that we know very well how to prepare
Bocachico, Foforro, Barbudo and Sábalo typical dishes that can be savored,
but it is not the only thing that I can tell you since my land of surprises is full,
currulao, abozao, aguabajos, porros, cumbia, we know how to dance and we learned to enjoy.
In my land, everyone sings beautiful rhythms that you will not be able to hear anywhere else,
Like the Chocoan laments, that is quite a ritual that comes from medieval times.
In Colombia these songs are a National Heritage.
We have artists that are beginning to sound also worldwide,
As is our ChocQuiTown whom I want to match, because I also like to sing.
The riches of my land are among fauna and flora, marsupials, lazy,
Tamanduas, many more, surrounded by two seas, beautiful and quiet beaches,
and the color of the emerald green water, showing that it is a land full of hope,
Exuberant waterfalls and crystal clear waters, bathed by three rivers Atrato, Baudo and San Juan,
Beautiful jungle where there are palms, sande, guabas, oaks and beautiful metals are,
We have gold, silver and platinum, in addition the waters always have to fall because in the Region
daily it has to rain, abundant land, friendly and powerful people,
Welcome to Chocó, I am proud, I am Josefina and they call me the girl with the fine umbrella.

La sombrilla

Me llamó Josefina y me dicen “la niña de la sombrilla fina”, ahora les quiero contar,

Chocó es mi pueblo natal, rodeado de la selva está, ríos, mar, y hasta manglar,

vivimos de lo que la naturaleza nos da, peces sabrosos que sabemos muy bien preparar

Bocachico, Foforro, Barbudo y Sábalo platos típicos que se pueden saborear,

pero no es lo único que te puedo contar ya que mi tierra de sorpresas llena está,

currulao, abozao, aguabajos, porros, cumbia, sabemos bailar y aprendimos a gozar.

The kites fly

This story is property of 123pormi.co

Enjoying and enjoying the red kite, reaches the cloud and feels frozen because she dances in the sky until she is purple.
Shines shines, the yellow kite shines, she by herself lights up, falls from the sky like an umbrella.
The pink kite runs and runs, she is jumping and she looks beautiful, with her splendid cheeks.
Sings and sings that she sings the orange kite, always singing along with her band, she creates a whole party in the sky.
She bites and bites the green kite bites, eating popcorn and happy to see you because she is happy to meet you.
The blue kite says, that she has a secret in her trunk, because yesterday she cut her bangs
The kites and their cheer lights up everyone on the square, with their laughter and songs filling the place with exceptional joy.

El vuelo de las cometas

Esta historia es propiedad de 123pormi.co

Goza que goza la cometa roja, llega a la nube y se siente helada porque baila en el cielo hasta quedar morada.

Brilla que brilla la cometa amarilla, ella solita se encandelilla, cae del cielo como una sombrilla.

Corre que corre la cometa rosa, ella brincando se ve hermosa, con sus mejillas esplendorosas.

Canta que canta la cometa naranja, siempre entonando junto a su banda, crea en el cielo toda una parranda.

Clinging to your skin

That morning it was raining rapidly, and everything was different in the environment, I felt absent.
Juanita and Sarita ran and I did nothing, because I already sensed that my girls knew it,
that her mother would leave that day, the only thing I repeated to them, do not regret that her mother is going to rest, however they were still small and they did not understand everything.
