Hello & Hugs DN Family of Friends of Mine, Greeting from
The Sunshine State of California.......

I have a story to share , I just spoke with my sister-in-law
Elisa on Wednesday. She shared that she recently had
been to our Hollywood Bowl for the summer season.
The renowned Gustavo Dudamel conducted Giselle,
such a beautiful ballet. Two most talented dancers
of the new generation graced the stage & stole
the night with multiple standing Ovations.

Sergie Polunin of Ukrain & Natalia of Russia. Elisa raved, I immediately researched also falling in love with these two beautiful artists. So happy to share the treasure given to
me by Elisa with you....

God bless wishing you & your loved ones a most
lovely & beautiful Sunday....Thank you for your
friendship , it brings meaning me & kitties.
Always Carmen, Picasso & Pasha..........



What is the story behind Giselle?
The ballet is about a peasant girl named Giselle, who dies of a broken heart after discovering her lover is betrothed to another. The Wilis, a group of supernatural women who dance men to death, summon Giselle from her grave. They target her lover for death, but Giselle's great love frees him from their grasp.

Sezen Aksu - Ahdım Olsun
https://youtu.be/uIuefNI2fOc

Let It Be My Oath

The years passed, Ah, I recognised late
I have understood that I counted the days in Vain
I gaped at the passing day
I always belonged to yesterday

My childness is scorched
My uouth is untidy
There is no benefaction from my adulthood

Life, (being) stubborn to the fate
I will live you from the beginning
Let it be my oath*

I blew, I rained
I missed (lost) the fast times
Regrets, hostilities
The complaints of my tongue doesn't end**

My childness is scorched
My uouth is untidy
There is no benefaction from my adulthood

Life, (being) stubborn to the fate
I will live you from the beginning
Let it be my oath*

Simon & Garfunkel - America LYRICS:
https://youtu.be/W773ZPJhcVw
"Let us be lovers, we'll marry our fortunes together
I've got some real estate here in my bag"
So we bought a pack of cigarettes and Mrs. Wagner's pies
And walked off to look for America

"Kathy," I said, as we boarded a Greyhound in Pittsburgh
"Michigan seems like a dream to me now
It took me four days to hitch-hike from Saginaw
I've come to look for America"

Laughing on the bus
Playing games with the faces
She said the man in the gabardine suit was a spy
I said, "Be careful, his bow tie is really a camera"

"Toss me a cigarette, I think there's one in my raincoat"
"We smoked the last one an hour ago"
So I looked at the scenery, she read her magazine
And the moon rose over an open field

"Kathy, I'm lost," I said, though I knew she was sleeping.
"I'm empty and aching and I don't know why"
Counting the cars on the New Jersey Turnpike
They've all come to look for America
All come to look for America
All come to look for America


Love Peace & Harmony Wished For Our DN Family of Friends
No Matter Which Corner Of The World Is Your Home,
Love you all to the Moon & Back.

Poem in verses by Ottavio Rinuccini:

Zephyr returns and gentle words
from fa grateful ago It is the footer he dissolves in the waves
and mormoranda among the green fronds,
makes danzar to the beautiful sound su'l meadow flowers.

Garlanded crin Phyllis and Chloris
notes tempering their care and joyous;
and by mountains and valleys and ime profond
have dealt harmony singing the caves.
Vaguer rises in the sky the dawn, e'l sun,
sheds more light d'or; the most pure silver
boasts of Teti the beautiful cerulean mantle.

Sol I, for abandoned forests and sun,
the ardor of two beautiful eyes e'l my torment,
as does my good fortune, I cry hor hor hand.



Peace, Love & Harmony For Our Dn Family of Friends,
Always with Gratitude & Appreciation, your Bonilla
Family love you to the moon & back......

My Fabulous Miss Kate Missing More Each Day!











"The young May moon is beaming, love.
The glow-worm's lamp is gleaming, love.
How sweet to rove,
Through Morna's grove,
When the drowsy world is dreaming, love!
Then awake! -- the heavens look bright, my dear,
'Tis never too late for delight, my dear,
And the best of all ways
To lengthen our days
Is to steal a few hours from the night, my dear!"
- Thomas Moore, The Young May Moon



Mother
https://youtu.be/FUih7S4FKbs
"Mother"

You know I want the best for you
As you've always wanted for me
And though our eyes may look alike but
They don't see the same thing
Hurt made a great divide
I added to the pain
My way to survive was shutting you out
Oh I was just a child, I no longer recognize
And now I'm seeing you
Maybe the first time

Mother
You did the best you could, the best you can
I know you did the best you could, the best you can
Do you know you did the best you could, the best you can
Forgive me now, oh I understand

They say we turn into our parents
I guess we know now what they mean
We might be made of broken pieces
But that's not who we have to be
Your mother's mother taught her only how to love
From an empty fearful broken place
Oh you were just child taught to shoulder the blame
But you're a woman now
You can lift your face

'Cause mother
You did the best you could, the best you can
I know you did the best you could, the best you can
Do you know you did the best you could, the best you can
Forgive me now, oh I understand



Basket of hugs to all our dn family, Happy Weekend.
Always Carmen, Picasso & Pasha .........................

My beautiful & Lovely , The Fabulous Miss Kate,
Miss you to the moon and back. You are my
best forever friend & sister, & I love you
to the moon and back. Baskets of hugs.

[Cosette]
You will live!
Papa, you're going to live!
It's too soon
Too soon to say goodbye

[Valjean]
Yes, Cosette
Forbid me now to die
I'll obey... I will try...

On this page
I write my last confession
Read it well
When I, at last, am sleeping
It's the story
Of those who always loved you:

Your mother gave her life for you
And gave you to my keeping

[Valjean dies.]

[FANTINE (beckoning)]
Come with me
Where chains will never bind you
All your grief
At last, at last, behind you
Lord in Heaven
Look down on him in mercy

[VALJEAN]
Forgive me all my trespasses
And take me to Your glory

[Marius comforts Cosette while Valjean joins Fantine and Eponine.]

[FANTINE & EPONINE]
Take my hand
I'll lead you to salvation
Take my love
For love is everlasting

[VALJEAN, FANTINE, & EPONINE]
And remember
The truth that once was spoken:

To love another person is to see the face of God!
