ABOUT
THE AUTHOR
My name is Adriana, and though I have a nickname, an American friend has told me I have a beautiful name, and uses only my full name. I am a woman, a dreamer who has a passion for life, and loves writing, and I must say, that I breathe words in and out. I started writing in 2003, as I was internally urged on to do so. Poetry is a natural outcome of my life, and I felt that I was guided or maybe even destined to write, a feeling that took over and could not be stopped. I love writing all types of poems and am glad when emails arrive from other people on the web, telling me that I put into words exactly the way they feel. Helping people is a nice way to forget about one's own personal problems and keep on going. Another reason that I have been writing is to improve my English. As English is not my native language, writing in English is another way to be even closer to this beautiful language. It has always come so naturally to me, that I can consider it a gift from Heaven. I was born and raised in Brazil. In marriage, I spent some time in the USA with an American citizen. Sadly though, it did not work out, and I returned to my native land, Brazil. Memories of the time I lived there are nice, and one day I hope I am able to go back to that beautiful country to visit and enjoy all the good things it has to offer. Teaching is what I do as an occupation and have a love for it, while writing is not only my love, but a hobby and a friend as well. As life's trials come I realize just how blessed I am in God and that He is everything to me. My children are grown and are young adults now. One is currently living in Italy and works as an Architect, and the other is a psychologist and lives here, in São José dos Campos. Soon, I will be a grandmother and will continue writing poetry and enlighten people's lives with my gift. My ultimate dream is to have one of my original poems used as lyrics in a song, and then hear it on many radio stations. [May 2008]

My Reason Dri
Why am I here ?
sure to let you know about me
I already know my reason
I will explain it with no speed...
I want to share with you
what's in my soul
that you can see the real me
in life that's my goal...
what's invisible to the eyes
mostly is what one denies
don't get really blind, please
that is my best advice ...
perhaps I try to help you
to understand
the meaning of life through these few lines
perhaps somehow I trully can
it is, right now, my honest demand...
to travel thru the time
I may be afraid to find
that is just only me
the one who is in need ...
here and now ...

"I don't want to reinforce the mean-spirited image many of the younger writers have of me because of my candid critiques, but....... I've really grown weary of reading the volume of mini-diaries posted on this site. Everything is about me, me, I,I, myself, etc. Why do so many of you writers think that your lives are so fascinating or profound that you have to personalize just about everything you write? We are but tiny individuals in a massive world where history and tradition are far more fascinating and interesting than the needs, desires, and insecurities of self-indulgent members of a pop culture going downhill. Good writing requires imagination, and the skillful writer can fill us with emotions of humor, laughter, sadness, mystery, suspense, horror and yes, love. We amateurs don't have to be the star of every movie we make. You've been very busy and in over sixty of your offerings, the words, I, Me, or myself are contained in the titles. I really like some of them but others I found a little too "Dri," if you know what I mean. " -- Richard.
