A peaceful ranch


(To Campo Lindo)

So many years I have been dreaming of a peaceful ranch. where I could rest, watching the dawn and the sunset.

Surrounded with fruit trees and flowers, a clear pond with swans...

An old house, with wide secure walls with wooden floors,warm stone fireplaces, huge ceramic pots,filled with jasmines that will bloom at night and bring to my bedroom of open windows their perfume.

Where garlic braids will hang in the kitchen, with copper pots and a big table, filled with laughter, friendship and wine...

A long terrace of ceramic tiles where my grandchildren will learn to walk and a wide and soft bed where each night I could fall asleep safe and happy in my lover's arms...
