A 30-year-old smile


Transform me my years
into something huger
From grey to blue sky
From spoiled to kind

Make over me my years
into something clearer
From worn-out to worthy
From weak to mighty

Change me my years
into something better
From pitiable to influential
From raw to bearable

Ripe me my years
and turn me into something valid

    @Writer Mom:


    Yeah. We make wishes before blowing candles... but there was no birthday cake this year. There was a nice lunch party though in the countryside. After that, we went hiking in the middle of a wood of grapevines, peaches, and pear trees. I saw baby birds, baby cows, baby chicks, and more. Unfortunatelly, I haven't gotten a digital camera yet, so I was not able to register all that in photos (sad).
