OK – I need your help with something. A long time ago I saw a documentary on TV. A wonderfoul one, important and real. It was about two things – elderly couple and a poet from Argentina (I think). At least he was from South America. It is the poets name I need help to remember. The name of the documentary was something like “The praise of the physical love”. Is there someone out there who can help me find the name of this wonderfoul man?
In the spirit of this question I will also present a link for you. This is me and Lasse … in our next lives. Or at least we have to practise really, really hard – for about ten years or so.

Or mayby I should present you with theese links instead, to really follow the right spirit of South America. By the way – this could just as easily be practised in Sweden. It just takes a bit of training.
I have done a little searching myself, and I was wrong about his nationality – he was from Brazil, and his name is Carlos Drummond de Andrade.

I found the the film too – O Amor Natural:

I have yet to find someone in Sweden who can sell it to me.
