Poems

Victor Marques Aug 2010
Meeting new culture, new nation,
Feelings and thoughts behind imagination.
Country with peace and hope,
With friends we can cope.


The captain of Pia 785 flight,
Believes in God as a light,
I Was sitting in a window seat,
I came for a friend that I can't quit.


I saw eyes with care and peace,
That nobody can't miss,
People with noble heart you can see,
Country with respect for you and me.


Pakistan touch my poetic soul  that shines,
We learn with so many different minds,
Lahore has so many treasures to see,
Like a bird I'm free...

To all my global friends.

Warmest Regards,
Victor Marques

Lembro meu Pai António Alexandre Marques

Na vida de todos nós,
Temos pais e avós.
Os dias passam sem despedida,
Amo meu pai toda a vida.

As videiras são teu paraíso,
Uvas do lagar se pisam sem aviso.
Vida por vezes sorridente,
Se ganha e perde num instante.

Foste podador da boa colheita,
Vinho que com Deus se deita.
As folhas das videiras avermelhadas, verdes e amarelas,
São teus anjos, tuas sentinelas.

Deus também amou o vinho,
Pois Cristo Sofreu sozinho.
As tuas memórias são sonhos lindos bem meus,
Amor eterno de filhos teus.

Antonio your name,
Agriculturist, grape grower.
Gotten passionate for the land,
For the Douro, Mounts.


That love that is not locked in,
He  sleeps in the hill, the mountain range.
He harvested sadness in the Colonial War.
He loved the Douro and Portugal.


He showed the land that joys would bring to it.
He  loved their children and wife Maria.
He planted grapevines that looked at the covered with star sky,
He  made  his wine with immaculate love.



The grapes are a love for all the life,
He  looked  for Rio Douro e Tua,
In  the memory of a people with glory,
With that tear that I feel now.
I comfort me in the duriense horizon,
Today, tomorrow and always.
