Leonard Cohen & Michael Parkes ~ Questo è per te...

Michael Parkes

Questo è per te
è il mio intero cuore
è il libro che ti avrei letto
quando fossimo stati vecchi
Adesso sono un'ombra
Sono senza pace come un impero
Tu sei la donna
che mi ha reso libero
Ti ho vista guardare la luna
Non hai esitato
ad amarmi con essa
Ti ho vista onorare gli anemoni
colti tra le rocce
mi hai amato con essi
Sulla sabbia liscia
tra i ciottoli e la spiaggia
mi hai accolto nel cerchio
meglio ancora di come si accoglie un ospite

Alan Douar | Quando ti chiedi cos'è l'amore...

Quando ti chiedi cos'è l'amore,

immagina due mani ardenti

che si incontrano,

due sguardi perduti l'uno nell'altro,

due cuori che tremano

di fronte all'immensità di un sentimento,

e poche parole

per rendere eterno un istante.

When you ask what love is,

imagine two burning hands encountered,

two eyes lost in each other,

two hearts that tremble faced

with the enormity of a feeling,

and a few words to

make a moment forever.

Dorina Costras

Leonid Afremov | Romantic painter

Leonid Afremov [Леанід Афрэ́маў] (1955-2019) was born in city of Vitebsk.

Amazingly enough Leonid was born in the same town as Marc Chagall, the famous artist who also founded the Vitebsk Art School along with Malevich Kandinsky.

Tried different techniques during my career, but I especially fell in love with painting with oil and palette-knife.

Every artwork is the result of long painting process; every canvas is born during the creative search; every painting is full of my inner world.

Each of my paintings brings different moods, colors and emotions.
