La Bandera de Estrellas Centelleantes (The Star-Spangled Banner)

Sinopsis del Libro

It was September 14, 1814, and America and Great Britain were at war. Frances Scott Key watched from the deck of a British ship, where he was being held captive, as cannons exploded around them. After 25 hours, the fighting ceased and Key peered through the clearing smoke, looking for some sign as to the outcome of the battle. Was the American flag still flying? His wartime experience inspired Key to write a poem, which was later set to music and became Americas national anthem. This book tells the story of the inspiration behind our national anthem, which helped transform the flag into a major symbol of patriotism and identity.

Mis Mejores Poemas en prosa

Pido disculpas a la lectoría, si es que acaso la tengo, por el atrevimiento del título, ya que debe ser ella, y no yo, quien califique la buena o mala calidad de mis poemas. He sido juez y parte en esta selección. Cada vez que escribo poesía, o mejor dicho, sirvo de vehículo para que ésta cabalgue cual brioso potro por los prados de los cuatro puntos cardinales, mi memoria, añeja ya de tantos años encima, se siente aliviada de su peso, pues se ha librado de un huésped que reclamaba su libertad. No creo que como poeta haya creado nada, sólo he liberado poemas en prosa y verso que...
