Description
*The heart is a bloom
Shoots up through the stony ground
There's no room
No space to rent in this town
You're out of luck
And the reason that you had to care
The traffic is stuck
And you're not moving anywhere
You thought you'd found a friend
To take you out of this place
Someone you could lend a hand
In return for grace
It's a beautiful day
Sky falls, you feel like
It's a beautiful day
Don't let it get away
You're on the road
But you've got no destination
You're in the mud
In the maze of her imagination
You love this town
Even if that doesn't ring true
You've been all over
And it's been all over you
It's a beautiful day
Don't let it get away
It's a beautiful day
Touch me
Take me to that other place
Teach me
I know I'm not a hopeless case
See the world in green and blue
See China right in front of you
See the canyons broken by cloud
See the tuna fleets clearing the sea out
See the Bedouin fires at night
See the oil fields at first light
And see the bird with a leaf in her mouth
After the flood all the colors came out
It was a beautiful day
Don't let it get away
Beautiful day
Touch me
Take me to that other place
Reach me
I know I'm not a hopeless case
What you don't have you don't need it now
What you don't know you can feel it somehow
What you don't have you don't need it now
Don't need it now
Was a beautiful day*
Beautiful Day (U2)

This is dedicated to gab-mag, Gabry, and celebrates the awesome day we shared two weeks ago when I got the first opportunity to meet him in one surprisng town, Brescia. The references of the piece, the places, the writing, is something that only me and him could really understand,because they were part of the day and of our journey but I hope you can see here as well the joy and the magic and the enthousiasm that that day full of lovely vibes is still inspiring me, and I hope, him too (thing that I am sure of).
I avoided to use YOUR style Gabry, unlike what I told you.. I tried to achieve a language more mine: definitely less stylish, less accomplished, but more similar to me, and capable to make you feel what I felt that day better. I hope ;). The flowers I chose are meaningful in the language of Flowers: they say "Gratefulness and Grace" and "Feast for a friend" Me and my friends are waiting you always. Can't wait to make you part of my world, so that the same affection I feel for you, can be felt by all my people. U are a lovely guy, and I wanna honour here all the amazing hours you've made me live.
Girls!!!!!!!! what are you waiting for? TAKE THIS GUY: he's a treasure :)
Enjoy you all, and if you wanna an advice.. try to know better this man: not only he's a very talented designer.. but he simply has a heart as big as Jupiter :) (and such an adorable family!!!)
With all the possible friend love, enjoy , Meli :)

sounds wonderful meli! two of my faves together enjoying the day & each other's company- you've expressed it very well here- vibrant & happy! :]
This very surreal. As if I'm watching someone else's memories... like pictures without a specific order, each one it itself is meaningless, but all of them together is a reminiscing bliss.
Glamour per esprimere una giornata, splendida realizzazione, vibrante nei colori e nel sentimento.
I was in Brescia in 1997 - it is a very nice town with a great history. Your Popart-Picture is very excellent ... You dont need any teaching in such things, because you are the teacher :)
