What our icons, or that defines us? This is a clothes horse, a plow or a battered UTE, perhaps a fondness for the mountain and the feel of sand between the toes? Or is the people, the archetypes of the national myth?

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY OF FAR
Happy Mother's Day far!
As love has wings, fly across the sea,
Turning burning seraphim with joy,
Placed in the corners in the clouds along its path.
Years, can not betray such innocence,
Santa perpetually morning light
The fire in the heart, a pillar that
Then follow through the desert night and day.
Here, then, is my love, and as land,
Change by a dove of their own,
Returning through the skies it once,
Say you were born, delivered to your door.
So we are eternal, despite the sands
The demand of us that the piece is on loan,
Since love is renewed, renewing the ancient dance,
However, while dancing around the world will not be more.
How hope can become a way of life
How can you expect to become a way of life,
One principle that determines one ends,
What could be put before what is,
The deferral of pleasure until slaughter
Yields of sleep – naked, yes, but really?
Of course, one could choose to live life
Eliminated from the morass of means and ends,
Avid ecstasy is,
Desiring not to change or sacrifice,
Worn out by the rapture of the actual premium.
A moment is a point to a life
Serving eventually will or durable option.
In is a time and was in it,
Heart, a willingness to sacrifice,
They need more time to celebrate what is real.
HOW DO I I tell you what I FEEL FOR YOU
How do I know how I feel about you?
When I think of you my feelings in turn
As if someone had fist reached in and took a few,
And turned and turned them tight and tangled. I tried
Somehow to say: You are the sun in heaven,
The wind that gets me where I go,
The sweet incense that makes me Feel So High
That love seems all I need to know.
But all the sticks in the throat! It sounds very nice,
Void as a crumpled paper bag.
Get out! Better than I was speechless
That offer the cliches that make you feel nauseous.
And yet I tell you of my love,
If only love its own locks to remove!
Every time I see my thoughts
Every time I see my thoughts
Vivid in the golden sun,
You are with me in my garden
And I am once again a child.
Vivid in the golden sun,
Their beauty brings me close to tears,
And I am once again a child
Learning to assume your grace.
Her beauty makes me mourn point
As I join hands with you in love,
Learning to assume your grace,
Dancing to the music inside.
As I join hands with you in love
You are with me in my garden
Dancing to the music inside
Every time I see my thoughts.
HOME is a myth that must be recreated
Home is a myth that must be recreated
As each generation came of age,
Placed by his own sons on stage
Just when his fantasies have faded.
However, one is just more than offset
To play well forged the saint or sage,
As the love wells up under the camouflage,
The truth that makes the myth of the Immaculate.
How beautiful it is to be a father!
Emperor of a dream forever
Repeat through the labyrinths of nostalgia
'Mid the memories true that what has been.
Sing, then, of the myths that bind to each other
Far below the bastions of belonging,
As the story began before the words begin
However, manufacturing the worlds in which the words mean.
A wedding is a marriage entry
A wedding is the entrance to a marriage:
One of the units through, and suddenly there is nobody!
Stepping from a fairy tale transport
In ordinary air.
Life is now a dance, but beautiful
Requiring intense coordination;
Each car is converted, so inscrutable,
More fully what it is in combination.
And we who love you wait, of course, outside
As you become love the mystery:
A healthy flesh of the bride and groom separately;
Two same, one life, two notes, one harmony.
When you are one, then we can see two:
Loving is not just one but two.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY LOVE
Happy birthday to my love!
A song of joy for you!
Perhaps these words will touch the heart,
Perhaps these words will do.
However, words are more than the clothes of love,
Often better when removed!
Instead of words epicure
Rapture has been shown
To be the richest rhetoric,
The poetry of God,
Taught by the silent language
As lovers of singing all night,
Yes! Yes! in harmony.
