From ARS54: Dear new colleagues (ENGL/SPAN/ITA), my best wishes to You all

Sola,
frente a la vastedad
adonde
no llegará
jamás,
la tortuga de mar
va fijando
los ojos ya velados
en el tranquilo azul
transparente
y secreto:
y grande, alrededor,
es el silencio.
Lejano mil millones
de años luz
lo que pasó,
en el alma
y en la vida.

en el tranquilo azul
transparente
y secreto:
y grande, alrededor,

Lejano mil millones
de años luz
lo que pasó,
en el alma
y en la vida.
El final ya está aquí,
sin parecernos,
y hay dolor
impotente
en este adiós
estremado al crecer
de las tinieblas.
…La muerte
es rabia.
Sólo quedan
rastros de sangre
en la orilla del mar,
nuestros vestigios.

Same to you! Dec 17, 2008

Grazie e tanti auguri di Buon Natale e Buone Feste anche a te e ai tuoi cari.

PS. E complimenti per la poesia (peccato non conoscere meglio lo spagnolo per apprezzarne le sfumature..ma grazie!)

PS.
And to my English-speaking colleagues (especially Özden ):
May you all have a wonderful holiday season and an even better 2009!

Love & Peace

grazie, grazie, grazie Dec 17, 2008

Avresti dovuto SUGGERIRE CALDAMENTE di seguire il link...
È che uno lo vede li con tutti gli "auguri html", e pensa di aver già capito tutto.
Io invece, si sa, son curiosa per natura...

Non ti facevo anche poetessa - vedi come a volte ci si fanno delle idee deviate?

Grazie per la pelle d'oca, la sorpresa e gli auguri, che ricambio davvero di cuore

Please post in English or add English translations of your messages Dec 18, 2008

The language of the Off-Topic forum is English, so it would be only fair to edit your messages to add at least a brief English explanation and post in English (too) from now on... for everyone's benefit and convenience.

We have a related forum rule, in fact.


Thank you for your understanding and a great 2009 to everyone!

SORRY, I APOLOGIZE, BUT Dec 18, 2008

I did not know it was not possible to send a poem in a language other than English, but the original text is in Spanish; furthermore now it is not possible to edit the message anymore! Thanks anyway

very much indeed for Your availability, Ozden, it's so kind of You; however, I referred to the old message (expired). I'll be more diligent in the future! Best wishes, ARS54

Hello Anna Rosa Dec 21, 2008

Let me tell you that your poem is moving, impressing and profound at least as much as the depths of the ocean are!

Thank you for having shared it with us and my warm wishes of merry Christmas and happy 2009 to you and to all my colleagues!
Oscar
