Hilde Domin Fan Club World Cup Event

Hello, I'm Annica,


Hilde Domin and Betty MacDonald Fan Club FIFA Women's World Cup 2011 Event in Germany is a great party.

Hilde Domin and Betty MacDonald Fan Club FIFA Women's World Cup 2011 DVD is very interesting with many Hilde Domin and Betty MacDonald Fan Club member interviews, Dan's fascinating Dorita Hess story and some interviews by Betty MacDonald Memorial Award winner Wolfgang Hampel never published before.

We can be very grateful and proud indeed that so many Hilde Domin and Betty MacDonald Fans joined Hilde Domin and Betty MacDonald Fan Club during this great event.

Betty MacDonald Fan Club Newsletter August 2011 includes a new list of Hilde Domin and Betty MacDonald Fan Club members from all over the world.
Our international Hilde Domin and Betty MacDonald Fan Club Community is growing every day.

All my love to you

Annica

Letizia Mancino praises Hilde Domin

Hi this is Greta, also called No-Sports-Greta,

Let's talk about great writers and poets Letizia Mancino, Hilde Domin and Betty MacDonald.

Betty MacDonald Fan Club honor member, artist and writer Letizia Mancino shares her delightful story THE SECOND PARADISE. I'm one of Letizia Maninco's many devoted fans.

Letizia Mancino sent this connecting piece to " The Second Paradise".

DEFIANT AS A COCK

Copyright 2011 by Letizia Mancino

That was how my friend Hilde Domin was, dear Betty! You would have liked her so much. She had also been in America. At that time you were a famous author but she was still unknown.

-Did she love cats like you do?

-Yes Betty, she sure did!! Otherwise how do you think she could have been a friend of mine?

-Oh Letizia, don’t boast! Hilde was famous!

-It’s all the same to me, Betty, whether a person is famous or not but that person must love animals

-Why was she as defiant as a cock?

-Well Betty, she was simply so!

-Like a pregnant woman in my “Egg and I”?

-No not so! Betty, Hilde was a whole farm!

- A farm, how was that?

- No Betty, Hilde was more! Almost a zoo! Even more. She was all the animals in the world!

-You loved her very much.

-As I love all animals.
You Betty, if I had known you, I would have loved you exactly so because you loved animals.

-But as defiant as a cock from my Bob-farm!

-Yes and no! (Hilde really loved this double form of answer). Listen Betty , I’ll tell you a story about how Hilde was. You would certainly have loved her.
I’ll call my story “The Second Paradise”.

THE SECOND PARADISE

Copyright by Letizia Mancino

The Lord God, one day, met Adam in Paradise and saw him lying under a palm.

And God spoke to him: Adam, my son, are you happy, are you content with Paradise ?

Adam answered: Oh Lord, it is wonderful!

And God said: But I will create a second Paradise and give you a wife.

Adam answered: Oh Lord, that is wonderful!

And God said: I will create the wife according to your wishes.

And Adam stood under the palm and thought hard.

And God said: Adam, are you ready?

Adam answered: My wife should be as lively as a bird but she should not fly. She should swim like a goldfish but not be a fish….. She should be as playful as a cat but not catch mice….. She should be as busy as an ant but not so small.

And God said: So shall she be: Like a bird, a goldfish, a cat, an ant…

Adam answered: Oh Lord, that is wonderful, but she should be as faithful as a dog.

And God asked: Adam, have you finished?

Oh Lord, cried Adam. She should also be as delightful and gentle as a lamb and as defiant as a cock!

….She should be as curious as a monkey and as pampered as a lapdog.

And God said: So shall she be.

And Adam said: My wife should be as courageous as a lion and as headstrong as a goat…

And God said: So, like a bird, a goldfish, a cat, an ant, a dog, a lamb, a cock, a monkey, a lapdog, a lion, a goat… and slowly and surely he wished to begin creating…

But Adam stretched himself under the palm and called:

Lord, Lord, she should be as adaptable as a chameleon but not creep on four feet.

She should have sparkling eyes like, like… real diamonds. She should be as fiery as a volcano

But … she should have crystal-clear thoughts like a mountain spring.

God, the Almighty, was speechless…

And Adam spoke: Also she should be as quick as lightening…

And God said: Man, have you finished????

No, said Adam! She should be as strong as a horse, as long living as an elephant but as light as a butterfly!

God found Adam’s thoughts were good and said: So, bird, goldfish, cat, ant, dog, lamb, cock, monkey, lapdog, lion, goat, chameleon, genuine diamonds, volcano, mountain spring, lightening, horse, elephant…. butterfly…

God wished at last to begin creating her…

Lord, called Adam… she should be as stable as steel, but as sweet as three graceful women in one…

And God asked: Should she also be a poet?

Yes, called Adam from under the palm…

And God said: Adam have you finished?

Lord, I wish that, in the second Paradise I shall be one and doubled:

So God according to Adams last words created:

HILDE PALM DOMIN


Very best wishes

Letizia Mancino is an outstanding writer and artist.
I know you will enjoy this very charming and witty story the same way I did!

Betty MacDonald Fan Club members will have the chance to read the story
"The Second Paradise" in other languages because there is lots of interest.

Thanks a Million, dear Letiza Mancino! You made my day!

As you know I'm not interested in Sports but in pets and excellent literature.

Betty MacDonald Fan Club founder Wolfgang Hampel is working on a Eva Vargas biography. I'd love to know: Did Eva Vargas like pets and cats?

You can read my new story in Betty MacDonald Newsletter July. Don't be to critical, please.

It's not a crime to dislike Sports. Betty MacDonald had the same feelings.

There are many of us all over the world although my family is crazy about Sports. I'm not!

Have a nice weekend!

Yours,

Greta
