Hey Snow...finnished with the words I drew out of your piece. I really do love this poem. It just seeems so dreamy...alive. The title is just too cool. I believe it to be Spanish? I admit I am guessing on that...but since amour = love in French it seems safe to guess amore = love in Spanish. Spezia however I could not even guess at. Since the French word for, "of," is, "de," I can make an educated guess that the Spanish version of the word, "of," is, "di." "Something," of Love? Okay...now you have to confess what the translation truly is. Please! I am afterall not fluet in anything other then English after all. I am basing my guess on the translation solely from what I can recall from my grade 8 French class oh so many years ago. Thank-you Snow for the inspiration this poem gave me. It is very rare that I write a piece after having read someone else's stuff...but I must confess your writing is just some of the best work I have ever seen. Love you my friend.

Remember, if you're not part of the future, you're history!

Snow,
This does not belong in the cellar so it is getting bumped to the top. And what a fabulous write and gorgeous pic. I love everything about this and enjoy it even more now that I know the meaning of the of title. Excellent work.

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you. Joy is a state of mind.
