Scissor Sisters – Fire With Fire

Books read in June 2010

July 2nd, 2010

Little by little, I’m picking up the rhythm once again. Three books this month. The goal is four a month, so there’s still some work to be done. I’m having the next couple of weeks off. Between the beach, photographing, taking walks, seeing the sights, and being with family, I’ll sure find time to read some more. Here are the books I read in June 2010:

- A Single Man (Vintage Classics), by Christopher Isherwood
- The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, by Stieg Larsson
- The Heart is a Lonely Hunter, by Carson McCullers

Dulce Pontes – Amor a Portugal

O dia há de nascer
Rasgar a escuridao
Fazer o sonho amanhecer
Ao som da canção
E então:
O amor há de vencer
A alma libertar
Mil fogos ardem sem se ver
Na luz do nosso olhar
Na luz do nosso olhar
Um dia há de se ouvir
O cântico final
Porque afinal falta cumprir
O amor a Portugal
O amor a Portugal!
