No sé que tienen las flores, Llorona,
las flores del campo santo;
que cuando las mueve el viento, Llorona,
parece que están llorando.

Dumb little thought: Jack learns about La Llorona from his Uncle Javier.
“Uncle Javier said that if I don’t act good, the crying lady would take me, and keep me in the river!”
I can only imagine the earful Abigail gave Javier after Jack told on him. Been a bit since I drew anything on paper, but I was drawing with my little nephew, and this thought wouldn’t leave my brain.
