Blockquote
Puedo ser un gringo estupido Para poner mi corazón en palabras Pero siempre será trankis poner mi corazón en sus manos
Blockquote
I may be a gringo estupido For putting my heart into words But I will always be trankis putting my heart into your hands

Diabla, Gringo Estupido, trankis are all required words that need to be kept in there. I'm not even sure trankis is a real word, but we use it anyway (tranquilo).
if anyone is curious, I am a doctor serving in La Chureca. I came here to help people, but ended up falling in love.
The woman(and her friends) have this strange fascination with NYC firefighters and johnny depp... to the point of being obnoxious on facebook
And no kidding.. our first kiss was at the top of a volcano, which a few days later had a minor eruption. The first time we were 'close' was in a movie theater (heh, watching Johnny Depp in Alice)... and there was a minor earthquake during the movie.
We were taking a long drive and she asked me if I was hungry. I said " pocita"(little).. and a few minutes later, I devoured half of a buffet. It has always been a little joke that my opinion of what is pocita might be a little off.
And finally. My first day in Nicaragua, I was buying something at a corner store. I didn't have a grasp of the currency conversion, so stumbled for a bit before being able to pay for my drink. The person behind the counter assumed I spoke no spanish, so called me a 'gringo estupido' to one of his friends. I laughed it off ( I've been called far worse). But when I told my girlfriend, she insists she wants to kill the kid. it's been a little joke ever since.
Thanks for double checking my translation of my own bad poem.

Pequeño should be pequeña because the person you're talking about is a woman. By the way, your poem is very good and sweet I would be honored if you wrote this for me. I am sure your girlfriend will love it no matter if you have errors in it.
