La Bellezza 2

The Elf
Glasgow Botanic Gardens, Kibble Palace


Bellezza


Noi sereni e semplici o cupi ed acidi,
noi puri e candidi o un po' colpevoli
per voglie che ardono:

noi cerchiamo la bellezza ovunque.

E noi compresi e amabili o offesi e succubi
di demoni e lupi, noi forti ed abili
o spenti all'angolo:

Noi cerchiamo la bellezza ovunque.
E passiamo spesso il tempo così,
senza utilità (quella che piace a voi)
senza utilità (perché non serve a noi)

Dear Friend

It's nice for me to have found this blogg of yours. I read and saw what I could, my time is short.
I sure hope and wish that you take courage enough to pay me a visit in my PALAVROSSAVRVS REX!, and plus get some surprise with my work there. My blogg is so cool! Don't think for a minute that my invitation is spam and I'm a spammer.
I often come across with so good but lonely bloggs in my friendly random search,
my search for a public that may like or love what I POETRY write and also CHRONICLE,
among other types of Artistic Texts: we all search HAPINESS and JOY, don't we?
Well I'm realy happy to have found YOU.

I've learned and seen a lot after much more than 10.000 bloggs I've visted in the late three months.
And I will, like Titanic's Kate, keep on and on and on and, like the song, feel that I 'Still haven't found what I'm looking for'.

When you come and visit me feel free to comment as you wish and, TOGETHER, let's make blogguing universal,
realy universal, as well all the essential causes that bring us all together by visiting, helping and loving one another this GENTLE way.

Let me tell you that some I visit feel invaded and ofended that I present myself this way in their blogs
and rudely insult me back or post a mockery post on me.
Some think I'm playing the smart guy who wants to profit in some way from (and with) others curiosity and benevolence.
Some simply ignore me.
Some aknowledge that It's most important we all take notion that there's milions of us bloguing arownd the world
and thus vital any kind of awareness of eachother such as I believe
this my self-introduction card and insert apeal brings in.

May you be one of those open and friendly spirits.

Don't feel obliged to come and visit me.
An invitation is not an intimation. Know that if you FOR A SECOND click on one of my ADS
I can earn a lot of money and so can you and there's no shame in it.
I would feel happy and rewarded if you did click it FOR A SECOND
because certainly I WOULD DO IT FOR YOU in case you had them and asked me.

I think that in the end it's to UNITE MANKIND that we became bloggers!
When in my blogg don't see language as an obstacle but as a challenge
(though you can use the translater BabelFish at the bottom of my page!)
and think for a minute if I and the rest of the world are not expecting something like a broad cumplicity that you're a part of.
Remenber that pictures talk also and I have de most delicious ones.

I Hope this message of mine had helped you in some way.

See you soon, MY FRIEND.
May the LORD bless our HEARTS and fill them with PEACE AND MOTIVATION
to endure our Lives the best way we can.

A FRIEND

Bellissimo post, Arimondi. Da buon romano adoro tutto ciò che è splendidamente inutile, in questa città bellissima, certamente più inutilmente mediterranea che modermanente europea. Un caro abbraccio dagli amici romani che ti leggono con piacere e ti ricordano con affetto, sin dal giorno in cui, giovanissimo, nordico e, diciamo pure, diffidente, fosti costretto ad esiliarti per anni qui nel profondo centro sud, che in fondo però forse alla fine amasti. O così almeno a noi piace pensare. Un abbraccio un romano

Arimondi ha detto...

Salve a te, caro Uomo di Roma. Perbacco se c'è un posto dovo ho coltivato la bellezza questa è Roma. Ed è assai vero che fui conquistato e romanizzato. Senza particolare fatica in verità.

Franco Zaio ha detto...

Roma è Roma. Quando ci vado per lavoro anche io, greve mandrogno, resto stordito da tanta bellezza, tanta storia. Purtroppo a volte (raramente per fortuna) i Romani sembrano dei Milanesi del Centrosud (soprattutto in vacanza, tipo in Sardegna o all'estero), un po' arroganti, ammettetelo. A Roma, però, a differenza dei Milanesi a Milano, siete adorabili.
