Much appreciation
For the fascination
And the sensation
Of much elation
Though you’re not Haitian
Trying out immigration
With the expectation
Of a better life.
My motivation
Is the realization
Of eventual transformation
Even with trepidation
Of the impending situation
Of an ending life.
I’ll turn off the TV station
Get some relaxation
Do one respiration
Out of obligation
And preservation
Of my own life.
There will be no hesitation
For a future conversation
With one so full of animation
And deserving of much admiration.
Tag in imitation
And with double acceleration
With no explanation,
Andrea

Great Blog.
If the "G" in your name stands for Gonzalez then you and my Wife are of the same family line. My wife's family hales from Extremadura, Spain. You resemble my wife's older sister.
Thanks for the compliment! No, my last name does not have any trace of Spanish origins, I just really love the language and cultures. I have been to Spain and it is a very beautiful country.
Did you go to Avila, by any chance? We were there in 1998, and it is quite an enchanting town. Spain is indeed a beautiful country,though it's quite sad that it has become very secular.
No, I was mostly in the south of Spain: Sevilla, Cadíz, Málaga, Granada... But I am always looking for reasons to return! Yes, the country has become quite secular, but Catholicism is so engrained in its roots! The churches, architecture, and celebrations still have that Catholic flavor to them.
Yes Andrea, you are right. All the visible signs of Catholic Spain are still there, Deo Gratias.
Well, if you do go back to Spain, I would highly suggest going to Avila and El Escorial. You will be delighted.
