Poema de Nora Rodriguez, participante de la convocatoria de poemas “Daniel Omar Favero”.
Eluney, de padre mapuche, de familia de Río Negro que sufrió la discriminación de su origen, que llegó al hecho de no permitirles el uso de sus nombres originarios. En ella, se vuelve al origen. Mi primera nieta, llamada Eluney que significa "Regalo del Cielo".
