Gracias Irma, that was my
first calavera ever. My husband says that one must be inspired when
writing one and that the person it's about must be your guide. Mi
suegra, que en paz descanse, wrote one for each of her children and
they treasure them. Give it a try and you might surprise yourself.
I did!
