Another July Morning!!!

 ... but the first time we underline, here, 

the luminous connection 

between Bulgarian and Portuguese Dreams 

each and every sunrise on 

THE 1ST OF JULY!  

AMALIA 

RODRIGUES 

was born... in July. 

Sometime in July ~ no one knows 

the exact date; we're not sure why!? 

But she was assuredly born at some 

point in this month... and, now, 

were she still with us... 

she would be a Centenarian. 

During her lifetime, not knowing 

the exact date of her birth, she chose 

to celebrate her birthday on the 

1st day of the month ~ 

a luminous choice...! 

... so it is with special gusto, 

this year, that we sing along 

with Uriah Heep 

and all Bulgarians 

in the (very) early hours of 

the first sunrise of July 

for what would have been 

the 100th (101st?) anniversary 

of the Queen of Fado 

also...!!! 

JULY MORNING 

symbolizing and representing 

so much - so many things, verily - 

this added coincidence 

is like... 

the cherry on the cake 

~ she would say!
