Real sign of Intercultura by R. Tagore
On the shores of Bharat,

I send my salutations to the God of Humanity

Rumi: “We are as the flute”

Who are we, O Thou soul of our souls,
that [...]

The value of speaking like poetry every day
I am realizing this value just now. This is an habit i am carrying since ever, probably since when I started reading poetries aloud to listen to my voice speaking languages different from Italian. It is a practice i enjoy a lot everyweek at home: I grab a book of poetry and start reading few [...]
