Julie's dog voices
"Oh boy, cheese is my fav'rite"
So many dog friends. 

--Melody



Five little monkeys
Jumping in Comalapa
Nobody fell off 

--Julie



Oh sweet Zeta Gas
It took so long to find out
What the hell you say 

--Mary Jo



So you have the knife?
Yes. Oh, do you have the knife?
Yes. Do you have it?

--Lizzie



Dancing my butt off
I've waited so long for this
Lets go again.  Now. 

--Paulina



Beautiful and strong
Maria Sotz,  protector

Women grow fuerte 

--Jaz
Photographing scarves
Diego's arm in the way

The eyes of children

--Melody
Wendy and Ana
Teaching with kindness and grace

You two are heroes 

--Lizzie
To dear San Pedro
We crossed the lake just for you

And found hot water

-- Mary Jo
Blue corn tortillas
At nine, they are fat also

Un poquito mas

-- Melody
Virginia's beans
Tortillas and platanos

My belly, it smiles 

--Julie
Sweet dreams for the world
Written in rainbow sawdust

All hail queen Lizzie

-- Melody
Rooster of the night
Calling me at 3am

Old man hacks again

-- Lizzie

Guatemala

Floating in the lake
Volcanoes covered by clouds

Tourquesa agua

-- Lizzie

Guatemala

Happiness haiku
This is one of them for you

I hope you like it 

--Lizzie
