Gwyn, just watched the video of Dancing with Betty, I'm nearly speechless—but my innards and heart are most lively with delight.

ReplyDeleteTo me it Dancing with Beauty,
Вот мой отзыв:
Как часто с сердцем замиранья
Мы вспоминаем Матерей,
Их дар Любить, их рук касанье,
и осторожное дыханье -
за счастье жизни их детей
Когда проснувшийся из детства,
Ты закружишься по Земле,
То материнское наследство с тобою будет и в тебе...
И счастье музыкою Танца с тобою пребудет до конца,
когда ты даришь сердце людям на мать похожа(похожих) и отца...
Покуда памятью своею в душе их образы хранишь
Ты в Жизни всё преодолеешь и многим многое простишь...
Sincerely yours,
Dmitry A. Lubich
