Nicaragua

Existence of this ageless tomb another sense given to invoke. Resurrected from a socialist womb with a success left to provoke. Two firey breasted beasts will greet, few miles across a frontier. Cloud capped and complete a glowing moment of fear. This was a 'land of the not quite right' and its claws had a strenghtening grip. The genius of Dario's write offers us only a shorten clip. Isolated by forces within or controlled by powers from out. The feel in your heart is akin to a home, that, I have no doubt. A step back to where we know yet two steps forward to what we don't. Where yawning smiles are a flow and abundant treasures mount. Future turmoil continues rife harden hands tells its story. It's people adapt to their strife, returning it to a former glory. Fire remains in the blood: the music, the dance akin- nor presume or nor you should, the passion that lies within. (Nicaragua, A Beautiful country)(http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/7898927.stm)

I enjoyed this, Gerald! People, everywhere, especially from so-called "3rd" world countries are resilient! I believe that man has an indomitable spirit and can adapt to any situation. Love this. Blessings, peace and joy, always, Audrey
