Morning

For those who love Bella Italia and those who love poetry.

Mattina

M'illumino
d'immenso


-Giussepe Ungaretti

(I flood myself with light from the immense)

Isn't that glorious?

Of course, by Bella Italia I don't mean myself and I certainly don't mean that restaurant. I mean Beautiful Italy. And I am more than certain we all love her.

I was so concerned you meant the restaurant that I was going to flood you with profanities and disgust.

I'm ever so glad you clarified. I can't wait to see her next summer...

My life sounds much too much like Ande's planning schemes :P

Yes, yes, but what did you think of the poem? I thought it was beautiful because it was so amazingly simple and contains so much in two words (sort of)

It reminds me of the simplicity of Japanese haiku or something like that.
