Agua Sexual Por Pablo Neruda
Rodando a goterones solos,
a gotas como dientes,
a espesos goterones de mermelada y sangre,
rodando a goterones,
cae el agua,
como una espada en gotas,
como un desgarrador río de vidrio,
cae mordiendo,
golpeando el eje de la simetría, pegando en las costuras del
alma,
rompiendo cosas abandonadas, empapando lo oscuro.

El Lago Titicaca
No se mucho de este lago, pero tengo las ganas de conocer todo el mundo. Siempre he pensando que este lago solo tenia un nombre gracisoso pero creo que hay mas que eso. Por eso quiero visitarlo y explorarlo con la ayuda de las personas que viven cerca al lago. Al final quien sabe lo que viene en el futuro pero espero que me traiga el lago Titicaca.
Water and Me
I have never been a big fan of water, whether it was drinking it, swimming in it or getting caught in the rain. When, I was young I almost drowned. I hate being sopping wet from walking in the rain and water is basically tasteless. After all these years, our relationship has not been great. However, these days I am feeling better about it. I drink it with all my meals. I went on a cruise and during my travels in Costa Rica, it rained every day. Maybe we are growing and I hope one day to call water my true friend.
El agua y yo
Desde chica siempre me encantó el agua. Me gustaba escucharla caer pues me ha siempre ayudado a relajarme. Recuerdo el sonido de la lluvia caer sobre las cortinas de aluminio que protegían las ventanas en casa de mi abuela. La ciudad en donde ella vivía se le conocía como la ciudad gris, pues era por allí por donde llegaban las nubes que traían la lluvia a la isla. Amaryllis
Bill - agua
Mi relación personal con agua.... Necesito tomar agua para vivir. Me gusta meterme en el agua para flotar. Crecí en la costa oeste de Michigan, así que me he sentido rodeado de agua, en un estado líquido o sólido, durante mi vida entera.

¡Me encanta el Océano Atlántico!
Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cape_Hatteras
Me enamoré del Océano Atlántico hace dos años cuando mi esposo me pidió la mano en Cape Hatteras National Seashore en el estado de North Carolina. El color del mar allá es turquesa y el agua no es muy fría. Es un lugar hermosísimo y espero volver algún día.
