Talking about stones

I simply love Mario Benedetti, his poems are amazing, they touch and caress your soul... When you read them you believe in love and you begin to dream with the love of your life... We don't know if we're going to meet them but it's good to dream.

 Here's a poem by Mario Benedetti, it's called Little Stones at My Window. And for the people who want to know why the name of my blog, I got inspired on this poem.
 
 Feel happy about the truth, open your eyes.

Little Stones at My Window

Once in a while
joy throws little stones at my window
it wants to let me know that it's waiting for me
but today I'm calm
I'd almost say even-tempered
I'm going to keep anxiety locked up
and then lie flat on my back
which is an elegant and comfortable position
for receiving and believing news

who knows where I'll be next
or when my story will be taken into account
who knows what advice I still might come up with
and what easy way out I'll take not to follow it

don't worry, I won't gamble with an eviction
I won't tattoo remembering with forgetting
there are many things left to say and suppress
and many grapes left to fill our mouths

don't worry, I'm convinced
joy doesn't need to throw any more little stones
I'm coming
I'm coming.
