Democratic Republic of the Congo‘s Independence Day
Saudade – Da Costa e Silva Junho 29, 2007
Saudade! Olhar de minha mãe rezando
e o pranto lento deslizando em fio…
Saudade! Amor da minha terra… O rio
cantigas de águas claras soluçando.
Noites de Junho… O caboré com frio,
ao luar, sobre o arvoredo, piando, piando…
E, ao vento, as folhas lívidas cantando
A saudade infeliz de um sol de estio.
Saudade! Asa de dor do Pensamento
Gemidos vãos de canaviais ao vento…
As mortalhas da névoa sobre a serra…
Saudade! O Parnaíba – velho monge
as barbas brancas alongando… E ao longe,
o mugido dos bois da minha terra…
António Francisco da Costa e Silva (n. em Amarante, no Piauí, em 29 de Nov de 1885; m. no Rio de Janeiro a 29 Jun 1950.

Saudade – Da Costa e Silva
Saudade! Olhar de minha mãe rezando
e o pranto lento deslizando em fio…
Saudade! Amor da minha terra… O rio
cantigas de águas claras soluçando.
Noites de Junho… O caboré com frio,
ao luar, sobre o arvoredo, piando, piando…
E, ao vento, as folhas lívidas cantando
A saudade infeliz de um sol de estio.
Saudade! Asa de dor do Pensamento
Gemidos vãos de canaviais ao vento…
As mortalhas da névoa sobre a serra…
Saudade! O Parnaíba – velho monge
as barbas brancas alongando… E ao longe,
o mugido dos bois da minha terra…
António Francisco da Costa e Silva (n. em Amarante, no Piauí, em 29 de Nov de 1885; m. no Rio de Janeiro a 29 Jun 1950.

Cubatão – Afonso Schmidt
um bambual que rumoreja ao vento;
Sol de fogo em areia prateada,
Deslumbramento e mais deslumbramento.
Ao fundo, a Serra. Pinceladas frouxas
De ouro e tristeza em fundo azul. Aquelas
Manchas que são jacatirões – as roxas,
E aleluias – as manchas amarelas.
A minha terra, quando a vejo escampa
Cheia de sol e de visões amigas,
Lembra-me o cromo que enfeitava a tampa
De uma caixa de goma, das antigas…

Copa America 2007 (III) – Resultados desiquilibrados no Grupo C
Goleada inesperada do Paraguai frente à Colômbia que dispôs mesmo da hipótese de se colocar a ganhar ao beneficiar de um penalty desperdiçado (defesa fácil do guarda-redes Villar do Paraguai a renmate de Dominguez, dois minutos antes de Roque Santa Cruz ter inauguradop o marcador aos 29′ da primeira parte). O duelo Roque Santa Cruz – Córdoba foi manifestamente desiquilibrado a favor do avançado que logo no reatamento da segundas parte após lançamento comprido bateu o defesa colombiano em corrida e fez o 2-0.
A eficácia dos paraguaios foi impressionante e o resultado avolumou-se até ao 5-0 final. O 3º. golo ainda marcado pelo jogador do Bayern, enquanto op avançado do Benfica Óscar Cardozo teve uma estreia pela selecção bastante discreta. Aliás foi o seu substituto aos 69′-Cabañas – que viria a obter os últimos dois golos.
Foi na segunda parte que o resultado se desnivelou a favor da Argentina com Herman Crespo a merecer destaque pois marcou também o segundo golo aos 64′. Pablo Aimar aos 78′ e Carlos Tevez aos 85′ aumentaram o «score».
A prova prossegue na Venezuela com os jogos da 2ª. Jornada do Grupo A a disputarem-se na noite de amanhã (em Portugal): Bolívia-Uruguai (21:05 Sport TV) e Venezuela-Perú (23:20 Sport TV).
