The Gorriones of Lima It is fall all around me- The Gorriones are swimming in the airUnderneath the Lima sky As if-, if fish could fly? Summer has gone its way It is fall again I say!The birds-, they just walk on by Looking, as if, if on parade- And The world keeps spinning; They just do not see itUntil the hour comes? When the sun goes down!? When, Things get a little dim; Yet the Gorriones keep on swimmingGracefully, swimming, in the wind- Under the Lima sky? .

The Internet has become a medium to connect with people as everyone is finding it a lot harder to meet one another in the 'real' world. It has undeniably also become a place of voyeuristic fantasy in the realms of sexuality on pornographic sites. What ever happened to true love? Are our priorities so messed up that romance has been forgotten, only to be experienced vicariously through television and movies? The answer is no. Romance will never die; we just have to feed it with our energy. The Gaul of La Laguna de Paca Part One
