Love poem number 4 in Spanish. Cuando te Conosi

2007-12-06T07:03:34Z

I wrote another poem in Spanish . It is beautiful to me, use the Spanish -English dictionary or have a friend trasnlate it.

Cuando te conosi.
Cuando te conosi tus ojos penetrantes y alegres
me llamaron la atenccio'n
y tambien note tu dulce y contagiosa sonrisa
Tu suave voz de hombre seguro y sincero
menciono' mi nombre " Magdalena"
Yo me senti debil, inutil, desnuna enfrente de ti.,.
Y al mismo tiempo me emociono.
sonrio y grito de alegria
Cada vez que te veo llegar.
Mi mirada sigue y persigue tu caminar.
Yo cuento tus pasos lentos y los siento
como una corriente un choque de electricidad.
Mi cuerpo sensible tiembla cada vez que
te veo pasar.
Y espera con mucha ansiedad
un momento, una oportunidad
para bailar contigo un Tango romantico,
una Milonga alegre o
Cualquier baile social que me pueda
ayudar a entregarme en tus besos y abrazos
y aserme dormir y sonar en tu pecho palpitoso
para que puedas escuchar el ritmo y amor
de mi corazo'n.
-Magdalena -

My new love poem -La Perla del Mar

2007-12-06T06:35:03Z

Hello! I wrote another poem , sorry ,It is in Spanish , it is beautiful ,use the Spanish -English Dictionary. _The White Pearl.

La Perla del Mar
Tu fuistes para mi, como una perla
que encontre en el mar
tan valiosa y rrara dificil de pescar.
Te enterre' en mi barco en mi corazo'n
Y por un instante me hicistes bailar ,sonreir,
cantar y hasta gritar.
En varias noches tu lustre y brillo
me acaloriso.
Haciendome sentir mujer hermosa y bella
dandole' mas valor a mi vida
Pero no se que paso.
Talvez tu te embriagastes con el aroma del
mar y quisistes volar o nadar.
O talvez una hola celosa o una ballena ladrona
derrumbaron mi barco, apagaron mi luz,
se robaror mis suenos , mis besos, mi amor
-Magdalena Russo-

Hi girls,

Well, better late than never. This is not my best work, but it will do. For the most part (98%) our crowd for this event will be coming from the Meet-Up groups run by Andy and Lyndon. However, I am still forwarding the flyer as a souvenir if nothing else.

Love poem number 2

2007-12-05T07:16:10Z

"I guess, I swam in dangerous waters"

at my own risk
fascinated by the great ocean ,
I jumped in.
not really knowing quite well,
how to swim, unaware of it's
depth and mighty powers,
swept by beautiful waves.
sank and swallowed,so deep ,
drown and,
violently beaten by high tides ,
dragged, and tossed back to land
as a lifeless rag-doll.
to be eaten up by opportunist
eagles or vultures.
or be awaken and healed by the warmth
of the radiant sun.
Yes, Yes,
I'm always awaken by the sun.
to admire and respect the deep sea,
learned to stay in familiar land.
like the crab that I am .

- Magdalena-
p.s , once , I fell asleep in Acapulco ,Mexico by the beach, a huge tide dragged me in and spitted me out . Yes, of course, I survived , with huge bruises and cuts and now, with another phobia.
