Parranda Drones
Christmas tradition throughout all Puerto Rico
Waiting Navidad eve outside the marquesina
Sipping on glass of homemade coquito
To receive carollers singing in parranda
This year tradition started to change
Each person replaced by parranda drone
New technology is turning holiday strange
I think I'll celebrate Christmas alone
About this poem
Poetry flies suspiciously.
