What a sunrise....

The grey begins to fade,

As colour creeps from leaf to limb.

The light is slowly seeping up,

From beneath the earth's curved rim.

The sky blue strengthens slowly,

Glazed with hues of orange and red.

Slowly as the earth revolves,

The sun lifts up it's head.

Colours shimmer in the light

And shapes begin to unveil.

The trees and flowers separate,

With the dawn light rosy and pale.

The sun climbs higher in the sky.

It's light shimmering and warm.

All things now are clearly seen.

A new day has been born.

Se eu pudesse voar...

SE EU PUDESSE VOAR...

 

Estava a pensar em ti
Quando olhei o céu e vi
Uma gaivota a voar
Tinha nas asas leveza
Plumas de rara beleza
Demorei nela o olhar...

Fiquei um tempo à janela
Até que deixei de vê-la
Naquele céu azulado
Mas dei comigo a pensar
Que se eu pudesse voar
Depressa estava ao teu lado

The fish and the Ocean



Zanzibar - Tanzânia

I have a story to tell you – it is about a fish and an ocean.

There was a Fish in the Ocean

Said the Fish to the Ocean:
'You can’t see my tears because I’m in the water.'
The Ocean replied to the fish:
'I feel your tears because you’re in my heart.'

I am neither a Fish nor the Ocean, yet I feel your pain when you cry.

Said the Fish to the Ocean:
'I am here I will not leave you because I will die without you.'
The Ocean replied to the fish:
'Without you my existence would have no meaning.'

I am neither a Fish nor the Ocean, yet I will not leave you because I love you.

Said the Fish to the Ocean:
'Without fishes there is nothing in the Ocean.'
The Ocean replied to the fish:
'Without you there is nothing in my life.'

I am neither a Fish nor the Ocean, without me you will still live on but without you, my life has no meaning…..

Said the Fish to the Ocean:
'So how many fishes did you known before me? '
The Ocean replied to the fish:
'You are surely not the first fish I have known, but you will always be the first fish in my heart.'

I am neither a Fish nor the Ocean, and we are not each other’s first but do you know every time when I start wondering; you will be first one in my mind….

Said the Fish to the Ocean:
'Why am I always the one asking you? '
The Ocean replied to the fish:
'Because I like being in your thoughts.'

I am neither a Fish nor the Ocean, but know that you are always in my thoughts.

If I were Fish and you were the ocean; would you let me swim in your heart?

If I am the ocean and you are a fish; you will always be the one in my heart….

Can't resist a sunset...

... it brings back so many memories!!

Memories are the treasures that we keep locked deep within the storehouse of our souls, to keep our hearts warm when we are lonely

Depende da posição ...

Segundo estudos recentes,
parado, fortalece a coluna;
de cabeça baixa, estimula a circulação do sangue;
de barriga para cima dá mais prazer;
sozinho, é estimulante, mas egoísta;
em grupo, pode até ser divertido;
no banho pode ser arriscado;
no automóvel, é muito perigoso...
com frequência, desenvolve a imaginação;
entre duas pessoas, enriquece o conhecimento;
de joelhos, o resultado pode ser  doloroso...

Enfim, sobre a mesa ou no escritório,
antes de comer ou depois da sobremesa ,
sobre a cama ou na rede,
nus ou vestidos,
sobre o sofá ou no tapete,
com música ou em silêncio,
entre lençóis ou no "closet": 

é sempre um acto de amor e de enriquecimento.

Não importa a idade, nem a raça, nem a crença,

nem o sexo, nem a posição socio-económica...  ...Ler é sempre um prazer !!!

DEFINITIVAMENTE, O ACTO DE LER LEVA A DESFRUTAR E A DESENVOLVER A IMAGINAÇÃO... 

Moments

Vila Nova da Barquinha - Portugal

In the end, it's not going to matter how many breaths you took, but how many moments

took your breath away

LOVE

Love is of all passions, the strongest,

for it attacks simultaneously the head,

the heart and the senses.

HAVE A NICE WEEK-END!
