Capricornio

I just started being part of a writing group where friends are gathering to promote writing among ourselves, explore ideas, get feedback or feedforward, and share our thoughts written in paper. For me, I'm also learning about the English grammar, so a double win. Here is what I wrote about Capricorn, the first sign of the Zodiac, since we are writing about them, but openly minded about them.

Capricornio

My name is Capricornio, which is Capricorn in Spanish,
well, there is something about Capricornio in Spanish that reminds me of
Saturn the planet where I come from.
In my life women and men have touched me,
in any way you can imagine,
one of them, oh, excuse me, two of them were
Simone de Beauvoir and Joan of Arc,
they marked my life as strong, hard working, powerful woman,
not parts of my group are Diane Keaton, or Sissy Spacek, or Faye Dunaway,
or Victoria Principle,
and, definitely,
not Kirstie Alley.
Love the music of Annie Lenox,
another woman, who has touched,
my life,
love her voice, mmmmmmmm, Broken Glass
I have broken, but , hearts
of men, and women. Many.
That's why I'm still alone
I forgot how old I am,
well, not as old as Ava Gardner, DIVA.
I don't have a last name, because my name, Capricornio is FULL.
Plenty of anything and everything you have desired.
