Un poema a la muerte del padre que es, a la vez, una celebración de su vida -con la plena conciencia de que esa vida concluyó y que los recuerdos son para los vivos; que no extienden esa vida que ya se terminó ni afectan esa muerte en lo absoluto. Una vida que -al concluir- fue a dar no a la mar, sino a la sala de su casa convertida en velatorio; una memoria que
-aunque ya no era él- enriqueció la vida cotidiana de sus hijos y -aunque no lo conocieron- de sus nietos y bisnietos. A poem to the death of a father that is, at the same time, a celebration of his life - with the full awareness that his life has ended and that his memories are for the living; that they do not extend a life that it is already finished nor do they affect his death at all. A life that -at the end - went to give not to the sea, but to the living room of his house turned into a wake; a memory that
-although he was no longer him - it enriched the daily lives of his children and -although they did not know him- from his grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
