Alphabe Thursday X is for Xingu
October 29, 2015
Xingu e todos locals
Todos que se planta da
Batata inhame e cenoura
batata doce e cará
Frutas, feijão e café
Do Nordeste ao Paraná
Xingu and all locals
All of that plant
Potato yam and carrot
sweet potatoes and face
Fruits, beans and coffee
Northeast of the Paraná
I have trouble with the translation of the word ‘cará’ ; but have no problem with the fruit and vegetables of Brazil … those alone are worth a visit.

Thanks and you also have a good time xx
Don’t worry about the translation of the word cara. You could have put just about anything and I wouldn’t have know the difference. 🙂 I’m afraid other languages leave me lost. 🙂
Bless you Betty xxxx Have a good weekend
Could it be something more like “sweet potatoes so dear”? I like the poem. To me, the poet honors the agricultural bounty that the people plant and grow.

Yes it is a potato … I am sure … celebrated home grown fare is so lovely … in UK much if not all is imported .. sad!
