@FalconRamon1 Such a beautiful and heart filling poem. With the apotheosis of summer:
"When you hold my hands I understand
that summer's arrived."
May love be an endless summer for you, dear FalconRamon.☀️🌊🏝️
What care I for the world’s seasons
Since you are my whole world my love
I follow seasons from your hands & face
When you smile roses bloom, spring arrives
When you grieve, leaves fall in sorrow
Your absence brings winter
When you hold my hands I understand
that summer's arrived
He doesn't realise it yet but it will be a bitter victory for Giorgio Germont as his frosty argument about ephemeral female beauty deals a blow to poor Violetta. South African soprano Pretty Yende, shows off her luminous vocal skill with @PlacidoDomingo , the archetypal Verdi father in a memory from a concert in Rome a year ago today. Stage perfection in one of the most emotive duets in "La Traviata".
Veo en tu mirada calurosa,
luz dorada me bendice a mí y a lo que roza.
Al decir palabras de la poesía, intento
hallar otras para el sentimiento.
Quiero hacer lo que tú haces,
dándome el sentido
de que soy el ser más amado
que jamás haya nacido.

Your presence fills your gaze,
gold light blessing me and all space.
When I find the poetry words I look for, I want
to invent better ones to correspond.
But my heart does less than yours, so warm
to make me feel
the most loved person ever born.

“No soporto ver llorar a nadie”, solía decir mi mamá. Pero
quizá sea algo hereditario, mamá; no puedo tampoco.
Me duele más si hablo con alguien y no logro hacer lo que quiero:
secar suavemente las gotas de lluvia de sus ojos.

“I can’t stand seeing anyone cry” my mom used to say. In truth,
this is something hereditary, Mom, but it hurts me to realize
that I sometimes fail to do what I should —
to gently wipe the raindrops from someone's eyes.

Even discomfort can be a good thing.
"Anything that is new, even if it is good, will feel uncomfortable until it is also familiar."
Brianna Wiest
Incluso el malestar puede ser bueno.
"Cualquier cosa nueva, aunque sea buena, resultará incómoda hasta que también resulte familiar."
THIRST AKA LONGING
Do you know what longing is, O child?
Longing is to stay silent when dying to speak
Longing is a thirst that glues the tongue
to the roof of the mouth
And if you ask,
what is the worst of thirst aka longing?
It is being unable to drink
while standing right beside the water
Just like remaining parched in the middle of the sea
Or, though your beloved is merely two steps away
Being unable to touch them, unable to speak
And remaining light-years apart

@EagleSoulMan Beautiful is the whisper of your soul, dear Khan. But it will reach its intended recipient just as it reaches everyone who reads these sad yet splendid words.
I wish you all the joys for the human heart, dear friend.
LOVING YOU
Loving you is like boarding a tram facing backward,
As the entire city flees into the rear-view,
I stare straight into the direction you head
While longing to draw near, growing more distant
You are like the warmth of a teacup,
Holding on too tight and it burns the hand,
letting go and you turn cold.
I frequently lose myself within the curves of your face,
Because no matter which map I consult,
it feels somehow incomplete.
The flaw is certainly not upon your flawless face;
Your face is the single continent
that cartographers fail to chart
I used to love you more on Sundays,
With the warmth of freshly baked bread,
And a touch of bashfulness,
Whenever you cast your eyes
down upon the street,
I could never bring myself to step on them.
Now that you are gone,
If I were to write you a letter,
I would place only my solitude inside its envelope.
Yet you know, I always forget to affix a stamp;
Hence this love never reaches you,
It always remains with me,
In a corner of the table,
Amidst piles of letters unmailed

@FcoTM1964 Muchas gracias, mi querido amigo. 🫂Sí, ya estoy recuperada. Pero te pido que te cuides y que cuides de tus seres queridos, ya que en estos tan hermosos meses distintos virus están alzando la cabeza.
@RobbieForty2 Thank you so much, Robbie. Belief in the eternity of love is a lifeline in the turbulent sea of life. And the most magical feeling when the sea is calm.🌊🏝️
To my parents
It's raining outside and in my soul, and beneath the grey drops,
black flowers go on growing and breathing.
My dears, I love you and miss you so much, not losing hope.
Wait for me until the happy day of our next meeting.
