I just wanted to share of my little venture here. I went up the mountain to a

lovey town and had some interesting experiences meeting folks. There was a flyer

that told of a poetry contest for a fundraiser for the education dept. there. I

used to write many ditties and decided to send a few in.

 

Yesterday I was thinking of places I would love to go and wondering how I might

get to them and was really thinking of my Italian family and how I truly miss

being with them. They have been on my mind much of late - each individual I

recall their faces and lovely voices and how kind they were to me and the

laughter we shared and the wine they drank while trying to coax me into

imbibing. Decided to check into volunteering overseas - most situations one

needs to pay to get over there while room and board are free so I will keep

looking.

 

Then last night I received a call from a lady telling me I won the poetry

contest. She could not tell me what place but it did not matter to me - I felt

so giddy to know that others appreciated my words and then to find out that the

poem that was chosen was one I had written for the females of my Italian family.

 

I found the fact that I have been thinking of them so intensely and then to have

their poem be recognized very pointed. I feel Shakti is giving me a heads up for

what I do not know - yet I am so grateful that I can share my family thoughts

with others. There is a dinner on Sunday and I am taking my uncle. He will get a

kick seeing me receive a little award.

 

I have not written much since K rose - some journaling and some posts but little

else. The creative juices have been dormant with words yet there are other

activities I have been engaged in.

 

I see such beautiful and creative verbiage here on this site. I have said this

before and feel a need to reiterate the fact. I feel humbled to be in in a

community where so many people are so gifted with verse. I make no qualms about

how I feel toward chirsm's words which are gifted by Shakti and I want all of

you to know that I appreciate and am in awe with the creative sharing from all

of the members. It is very true that Kundalini Shakti gifts her chosen with

creative talents in many areas one of which is verse.

 

I will be thinking of all of you as I am recognized this Sunday. All of you who

have given me so much to ponder and learn and who have shared in so many

beautifully written ways. The connection is real to me - you are my K family - I

am blessed to have met so many of you and hope to meet more as time moves on.

 

Le Donne Buratone

 

We're the Buratoni women, on the land 400 yrs.

Our roots run deep and solid, we hold our heritage dear.

 

The Loro men are our foundation.

They hold the tenets of our life

They keep us safe from any harm

And handle any strife.

 

The women build the legacy by caring for the home

Raising all the children, ensuring the men don't roam.

 

Faith, home and family, the children come to know

They remain in the community insuring the family grows.

 

Our American family members visit now and then

We open up our homes and hearts after all, they are kin.

 

The ebb and flow of the Loro family is like the Brenta river

At times it slows - at times it flows

With a never ending giving.

 

God has been good to us in many varied ways

We thank him for the gifts he sends each and every day.

 

We're the Buratoni women.

We sing the praises of the land

We travel in this life on earth

Beside the Loro men hand in hand.

Hi ,

 

Congratulations ...I loved reading your poem...I can feel the strenght and

knowing and kindness of Le Donne Buratone, and it is almost like I too know them

and their ansestors.

 I will think of  you and your uncle on Sunday and I bet all the Buratone

women will be there with you in spirit.

I love the way you write your enthsiasm and beautiful spirit vibrate

from the words.  I feel very loved by you here in this family and this

connection is very real to me too.  Thank you.

Love Julia x

Poetry...

 

 

I just wanted to share of my little venture here. I went up the mountain to a

lovey town and had some interesting experiences meeting folks. There was a flyer

that told of a poetry contest for a fundraiser for the education dept. there. I

used to write many ditties and decided to send a few in.

 

Yesterday I was thinking of places I would love to go and wondering how I might

get to them and was really thinking of my Italian family and how I truly miss

being with them. They have been on my mind much of late - each individual I

recall their faces and lovely voices and how kind they were to me and the

laughter we shared and the wine they drank while trying to coax me into

imbibing. Decided to check into volunteering overseas - most situations one

needs to pay to get over there while room and board are free so I will keep

looking.

 

Then last night I received a call from a lady telling me I won the poetry

contest. She could not tell me what place but it did not matter to me - I felt

so giddy to know that others appreciated my words and then to find out that the

poem that was chosen was one I had written for the females of my Italian family.

 

I found the fact that I have been thinking of them so intensely and then to have

their poem be recognized very pointed. I feel Shakti is giving me a heads up for

what I do not know - yet I am so grateful that I can share my family thoughts

with others. There is a dinner on Sunday and I am taking my uncle. He will get a

kick seeing me receive a little award.

 

I have not written much since K rose - some journaling and some posts but little

else. The creative juices have been dormant with words yet there are other

activities I have been engaged in.

 

I see such beautiful and creative verbiage here on this site. I have said this

before and feel a need to reiterate the fact. I feel humbled to be in in a

community where so many people are so gifted with verse. I make no qualms about

how I feel toward chirsm's words which are gifted by Shakti and I want all of

you to know that I appreciate and am in awe with the creative sharing from all

of the members. It is very true that Kundalini Shakti gifts her chosen with

beautifully written ways. The connection is real to me - you are my K family - I

am blessed to have met so many of you and hope to meet more as time moves on.

 

Le Donne Buratone

 

We're the Buratoni women, on the land 400 yrs.

Our roots run deep and solid, we hold our heritage dear.

 

The Loro men are our foundation.

They hold the tenets of our life

They keep us safe from any harm

And handle any strife.

 

The women build the legacy by caring for the home

Raising all the children, ensuring the men don't roam.

 

Faith, home and family, the children come to know

They remain in the community insuring the family grows.

 

Our American family members visit now and then

We open up our homes and hearts after all, they are kin.

 

The ebb and flow of the Loro family is like the Brenta river

At times it slows - at times it flows

With a never ending giving.

 

God has been good to us in many varied ways

We thank him for the gifts he sends each and every day.

 

We're the Buratoni women.

We sing the praises of the land

We travel in this life on earth

Beside the Loro men hand in hand.
