!Mira que luna! Look at that moon! Resources for learning English
Fernando Olivera: El rapto.- TEXT FROM THE NOVEL The goldfinch by Donna Tartt (...) One night we were in San Antonio, and I was having a bit of a melt-down, wanting my own room, you know, my dog, my own bed, and Daddy lifted me up on the fairgrounds and told me to look at the moon. When "you feel homesick", he said, just look up. Because the moon is the same wherever you go". So after he died, and I had to go to Aunt Bess -I mean, even now, in the city, when I see a full moon, it's like he's telling me not to look back or feel sad about things, that home is wherever I am. She kissed me on the nose. Or where you are, puppy. The center of my earth is you". The goldfinch Donna Tartt 4441 English edition

Best wishes, omens

 Ojos de sapo, patas de rana, 
que tengas suerte toda la semana!
¡Alas de murciélago 
, cola de lombriz,
que hoy y siempre seas muy feliz!
¡Muelas de hipopótamo
, cuernos de dragón, 
que nunca nadie hiera tu corazón! 

¡Dientes de culebra
, huesos de chucho,
NUNCA olvides que te quiero mucho!
¡Uñas de gato
, plumas de gallina,
que siempre te lleves bien con la vecina!

CONJURO:

Escobita, escobita, 

que cada año me ponga más bonita.
Sapo, sapito,

que este año mevaya mejorcito.
Caldero, calderito, 

que me abunde el dinerito...
