mi Musa uses
a translator to
express her
words to
me

typing what she
wants to say
rapido makes
for the words
of inspiration

as i write this
she has boarded
an airplane to take
her cake and eat it too
birthday vacation 

so she wrote and
who more poetic than
a true Musa would breathe
inspiring me with her words
"I'm already mounted on the yummy"...

Splendid
Splendid ,
as silver moon
is the woman of mine.
Life illuminates
tender and lively,
engaging ray
swift and keen
flowing and silken.
light and vivid colors,
invisible aura
which takes me
as music
unpredictable.

Splendida,
Splendida,
come argento di luna
è la mia donna.
La vita illumina
Tenera e vivace,
raggio avvolgente
rapido e penetrante
fluido e suadente.
Luce e colore vividi,
aura invisibile
che mi prende
come musica
imprevedibile....

Why am I running round this table
Getting sweaty and looking a sight
Someone said it would enable
Me to lose some weight, I hope they’re right

A tiny bat an even smaller ball
Goes flying past my head
Didn’t even see it, ref makes a call
Think I lost is what he said

Table tennis sounds so simple a game
I am hot and sweaty, plus ashamed to lose
Not gentile at all, should change its name
Rapido tennis  is the name I would choose
