Joining poems of the Tuca diamond of Cidade de Deus



An 85-year-old woman.
Look at a woman
It is looking at eternity.
Age to produce, to be, to exist
And reap the fruits of living.



Anahyde dos Santos, Known as Tuca of Cidade de Deus, is a poet, singer and songwriter. Grandmother, great-grandmother, favelada and winning woman. He will have his first book of poetry published at the age of 85.
And all this because I have done a project for a contest of the Brazilian Ministry of Culture. Everything on the internet. She has gained the resources to be able to make her book. Now I am joining your poetry and working out the structure of this book. It's great to be able to make a person happy. This person has a network that is also happy for success.
