Hello guys, my name is Marco, 39 years old, living in Rome (Italy), and of course I'm a philatelist. I collect two main topics: 1) Geology (minerals, rocks, mining, volcanoes, earthquakes, ...), in Thematic Philately (best award: G) 2) the Vesuvian Funicular, in Postal History (best award: LV) You can see the first exhibit in the CIFT website: http://www.cift.it/modules.php?name...d=70&idl=engYou can see the second exhibit on CIFT website too: http://www.cift.it/modules.php?name...d=71&idl=engbut you can browse my website too: http://www.funicolarevesuviana.it/I'm a national Thematic juror, too, and often I'm a Federal Commissioner in several exhibitions. I write articles and cronicles in some magazines, too. Since some weeks I joined the APS as that I met all the staff at the last StampShow in Columbus. Nice to meet all of you. |

Hi guys, thank you very much to everyone for your welcome!
At the urls present in my first message there are the images of my exhibits: take a look, and any suggestion would be really appreciated.
Kind regards :-)
Marco |

Well, all I can say is....
WHEN I was but thirteen or so
I went into a golden land,
Chimborazo, Cotopaxi
Took me by the hand.
My father died, my brother too,
They passed like fleeting dreams,
I stood where Popocatapetl
In the sunlight gleams.
I dimly heard the master's voice
And boys far-off at play,
Chimborazo, Cotopaxi
Had stolen me away.
I walked in a great golden dream
To and fro from school--
Shining Popocatapetl
The dusty streets did rule.
I walked home with a gold dark boy,
And never a word I'd say,
Chimborazo, Cotopaxi
Had taken my speech away:
I gazed entranced upon his face
Fairer than any flower--
O shining Popocatapetl
It was thy magic hour:
The houses, people, traffic seemed
Thin fading dreams by day,
Chimborazo, Cotopaxi
They had stolen my soul away!
