Francisco Gomes de Matos’ poems are wonderful. I enjoy reading them and I learn a lot from his poems.
By the way, may I ask you, Mr. Francisco Gomes de Matos, to prepare poems, written specifically from the view point(s) of women, for instance?
May I ask you to prepare poems, written specifically from the view point(s) of an ethnic, cultural, or religious minority, for instance?
Once again, thank you very much for beautiful poems.

You might like to download some of my posters (most of
them in English;some in Portuguese) on a variety of
global issues (one of them on Women`s Rights),so please
