Lovey poem from the Grande Pablo Neruda! Thanks Bam
There is another poet that I like very much: Mario Benedetti.
"Let´s Make A Deal"
When you feel your wound about to bleed When you feel your voice about to sob Count on me.
Partner, You know You can count On me Not up to two Or up to ten, But count On me.
If sometimes You notice That I look into your eyes And a vein of love You recognize in mine Don't alert your rifles Nor think "what a delirium", In spite of the vein Or perhaps because it exists You can count On me.
If several times You feel me Unsociable without reason Don't think "what a slack", The same way you can count On me.
But let´s make a deal, I would like to count On you, It is so nice To know you exist, One feels alive And when I say this I mean count Even though it´s up to two or even though it´s up to five, Not to make you come Hasty to my aid But to know certainly That you know you can Count on me.

This is a Violeta Parra's song interpreted by Mercedes Sosa,recently she passed away but I had the fortune to enjoy a couple of live concert of hers.
Thanks to life
Thanks to life, which has given me so much It has given me two eyes, and when I open them I clearly distinguish black from white And in the high sky, its starry depths, And from the crowds, the man that I love. Thanks to life, which has given me so much It has given me hearing, which in all its breadth Day and night records crickets and canaries, Hammers, turbines, barking, dark clouds, And the tender voice of my beloved one.
Thanks to life, which has given me so much It has given me sound and the alphabet And with it the words to think and speak Mother, friend, brother, and the light that brightens The path of the soul of my loved one.
Thanks to life, which has given me so much It has kept my tired feet walking With them I walked through cities and puddles, Beaches and deserts, mountains and plains And your house, your street and your courtyard.
Thanks to life, which has given me so much It gave me my heart, which shakes its frame When I look at the fruit of the human brain When I look at good ones so far from bad ones When I look at the bottom of your light-color eyes.
Thanks to life, which has given me so much It has given me laughter and it has given me tears Thus I distinguish between joy and pain, They are all elements of my song and of your song, which is all one and the same.
