Array ( [sid] => 54919 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => PRUETO RICO [time] => 2004-07-05 22:05:22 [hometext] => THIS WAS WRITTEN IN THE MEMORY OF MY FIRST LATIN LOVE [bodytext] => I DREAM OF A HERITAGE NOT OF MY OWN BUT FEEL MY HEART BEAT CON TEMPO RAPIDO.

FOR IF YOU ONLY SEE A WANNA BE OR THE NAYSAYERS SPEW THE WORDS HE`LL NEVER RELATE.

THEN LOOK AROUND YOU WITH FULL VEIW AND ADJUST YOU PERCEPTION FORWITHIN ALL OF US THERE IS A CONNECTION.

WHEN MY SOUL LOOSES CONTROL TO SOUNDS OF SALSA THAT TAKES OVER WITH THE RYTHMN OF CONGAS, HORNS AND SALIA`S SALSA SILK VOICE SAYING AZUCA.

TITO PUENTE PLAYING THE TEMBALES,
WILLIE COLON AND THE SOUNDS OF JAZZ ARE ALL HIDDEN FLAVORS OF AFRICAN DECENT.

I DREAM OF A PLACE I'VE ONLY SEEN IN MY DREAMS THE EMERALD GREEN OF THE PALM TREES.

THE PARADE OF COLORS AND EROTIC SCENT OF FRUIT THAT STIRKES THE SENSES AS LIKE THE BEAUTY OF THE ISLAND AND LOVELY FLOWERS ALONG THE WAY.

THE SUBTLE BREEZE GREETS TOU WITH A WARM EMBRACE AND THE OPEN ARMS OF THE PEOPLE.

THE AROMAS OF COCINANDO DE ARROYS AMRELLO CON P0LLO,CHULETA`S, ACAPUREHA THAT HAVE BEEN PAST DOWN THROUGH THE GENERATIONS OF HER CHILDREN.

I TASTE OF HER FOOD AND FALL IN LOVE WITH THE CULTURE OF LATIN PRIDE AND TRADITIONS.

HER LANGUAGE HAS BECOME A PART OF ME THAT SEEMS SOME HOW TO HAVE BEEN THERE ALL ALONG.

THE BEAUTY OF LA PLAYAS CHRYSTAL WHITE SANDS FLOWING THRU MY FINGERS AND THE CLEAR BLUE WATERS OF WONDERS THAT SURROUNDS HER.

I DREAM OF LOVING THE LATINA QUEEN THAT HAS CAPTURED MY HEART.

LIKE THE MIST THAT HANG OVER THE COUNTRY HILLSIDE AND THE WIND THAT CARRIES THE SOUNDS OF COCQUI.

I DREAM OF LOVING HER SO LONG THAT MY LIFE WAS OVER THE DAY I FELL IN LOVE WITH HER CHILDREN.

I DREAM OF MEETING YOU IN PERSON SOMEDAY AND WALK WITH YOU HAND IN HAND.

AND DREAM OF YOU NO MORE BUT LOVE YOU FOREVER PRUETO RICO.

well anywhere in the tropics and sands, and well .. it sounds beautiful. a paradise of nothing with waves coming to feet and making the beach flow to the mind. what a wonderous idea, loved this write.
