The founder of Hera the Light of Women, Mrs. Marianela Mirpuri told me about her idea to have a Poetry Anthology and challenged me to write and coordinate the first anthology for Hera the Light of Women. My first feelings where if I should be able to do it and thank her for trusting me. Then doubts came into my spirit, as I was not used, since long time to write in English (besides Hera’s hymn),
and it is not my native language. But suddenly came to my mind that Fernando Pessoa our brilliant master, the poet I love so much had written and published in English. From this moment I did not waste any other second. I accepted it with a happy and great smile.
