El 4 de septiembre de 2024 One hundred years of their birth are completed. A poet who never gave up his roots. We must continue reading their poems and splashing the rumor that we still have a rose, A paper rose ...

She had a rose,
A paper rose,
of an old newspaper role,
of a yellow newspaper of time.

She wanted a rose,
and one day she was made.
She had a rose,
A paper rose.

They spent winter and summer,
the spring too,
Autumn also passed,
rainy and wind days.

And she had the rose,
A paper rose.
Died any day
And they bury him after.

But on the street where he lived,
But in the village where I lived,
The hands of the village were passing
A paper rose.

And the rose was circulating,
but very secretly.
And from hand to hand they passed
A paper rose.

The people believed again
and nobody knew
What did that rose had,
A paper rose.

Until one day of those days
He sent the City Council
May the rose burned,
Because that wasn't fine.

The houses were ruled:
the rose did not appear.
Had interrogations;
No one knew anything about it.

Pero, as a slogan,
circulates secretly
De that en, all over the people,
A paper rose.
