Hi! I am at my relatives.
I miss you.
Tania
Hi and thanks.
I can’t wait to hear about La Brea Tar Pits. Interesting place.
Researchers find tons of fossils there. Poor animals! getting trapped in there.
Bye.
I’d like to be an archaeologist. It’d be fun. Who knows some day I will?
Hello, crazy people. How is it going? I’m Aecio from Brazil, the most beautiful country in the world. Come and see with your own eyes.
WITHOUT YOUR LOVE
Like I loved you, nobody will ever love you
when you wake up you will not find me
at your side
You and me will be ever absent
my solitude no longer will you feel
since today
Without you my dear lover
never understand what my adversity
could be living alone
Without me, your loneliness will vanish
and time after time, your doubts will soon
pass away
Don´t worry my dear sould, such is life
when a lover is tired of receiving so much
love as I give you
No unrequited love will live for ever
even so I’ll await for you inside my soul
till I die.
+++++
Peace and love for every one of you

Hi, Emiliano! You make me cry.
Without you my dear lover…it’s the dream of everyone who wants to be together with the beloved person.
A dream? It can be a real dream even if sometimes it is just for a short period of time.
The most important thing is to have the chance to live , to feel this amazing love
and someone telling you , only for you, “I’ll wait for you inside my soul till I die”.
I have to write this nice poem in my special notebook.
Thank you, dear Emiliano.
Tania
Your words sound wonderful to me dear Tania, it is great that
my poem moves your feelings this way, thank you so much
dear friend.
You are always in my thoughts when I put some poem here
and can´t forget your nice words of before.
Cuca is here at my side and I have told her about your message, it
is a pity she can´t read English and translating to Spanish the poem
it´s not a right option.
Next April 30th we will be married for 44 years as we said “yes I do”
on the year of 1970 here in Madrid. It has been a long long way
full of happiness and some sorrows, but here we are together living
by today.
That´s the point.
