As Neruda Once Said

Lovers mix feelings
between kisses, beds
and bread ...
your presence
in front of me
 would be enough
to be blessed
forever.
If i could only be the sailor.
of your love... if i were
one of those who arrive
kiss and depart.
That would be enough for me ...!

Ah Alkas you should move to Italy and be the incarnate of Pablo. Remember reading "Body of a Woman"? Your words are sweeter. Thank you Alkas.

Neruda's poems makes my heart beat and my blood burn my body... You are right when remember me this poem, it is peculiar , it is really Neruda way of making anything extraordinary... I worked for Costa Armatori Linea C, but i have never been in Italy. My wife is oriundi... part Italian and part German. Thank you dear friend salute alkas
