Alphabe Thursday T is for Tenho amor … I love
October 1, 2015
Tenho amor a minha terra
Quando eu estou longe dela
Fico triste que de noite
Eu durmo e sonho com ela
Felicidade completa
Só tenho encontrada nela
I love my land
When I’m away from it
If am sad at night
I sleep and dream about her
And find complete happiness
I agree with the poet; I love my homeland and enjoy going home, when I have been away. My daughter lives in Brazil and smiles at the adage ‘you can take the girl out ‘England’ but you cannot take England out of the girl’ I expect this applies to everyone who leaves their home whatever the reason.
She looks forward to parcels from home as much for the smells of home as the gifts.

I agree. I’ve learned to love these mountains even though it isn’t where I was born. I’d miss them if I ever left.
Wonderful post for T ~ always a great lesson here ~ thanks!
Happy Weekend coming to you,

The Mama left her homeland over 65 years ago, but she still dreams of it and it makes her happy. 🙂
