[014.19] Madonna * La Isla Bonita

6 years ago, on this day, I was leaving SĂŁo Miguel in Azores, for a non-stop weekend.

While in the island, and besides all the craziness of the flight there, I had the opportunity to go for a day road trip around the island, having the opportunity to see some of the most amazing views that I ever seen in my life.

It is, for sure, a beautiful island…

[008.19] March 19th in Portugal

The first time I “published” this, or part of its lyrics, was in my masters degree dissertation. The last part (the one I used) means something like this…

If I were a composer
I would compose in your honour
A triumphant hymn

If I were an art critic
I would have to declare you
A worldwide masterpiece

But I’m just a vulgar man.
Who had the good fortune to savour
Your uncertain step
And paradise in your eyes.
