Bernadette is the writer as well as the publisher

the name chosen for the publisher ( not a registered company ) has two

formats:

LEE-PISAPIA, Kam Fu Bernadette ( Hong Kong format), or LEE-PISAPIA Kam Fu Bernadette ( Italian format) . Therefore, the comma in between does not mean two distinct individuals as it is used to distinguish the last name and the first name in the Hong Kong format. For the other format, capital letter has been used to indicate the LAST NAME from the first name.

( from 06/09/2023, the Italain format is officially transformed to LEE Kam Fu Bernadette coniugata PISAPIA . However, the fully extended writing of my hyphenated Last Name is still maintained as my Canadian and Hong Kong identity : Kam Fu Bernadette LEE-PISAPIA)

Florentine Diary

is about

the present

as well as the past

about

my days as a student painter

up on the Florentine Hill side

painting the wild boars

once in a while

coming down to the Duomo

to see my friend restoring the frescoes of Zuccari

It is also about

going to the New Budokan Space

lost at Piazza delle Cure

but refound this new space

of Stefano

near where I have a permanent Painting Exhibition

on Via Gioberti

at Lexis

seeing Stefano unrolling my new calligraphy

where there are ten other old pieces of works

still kept intact in his Space

one feels

this is almost a miracle

so a few days later

the moment arrived:

a redoing of one of my favourite Li Ching Chao’s lyrics

where she sings

...Drunk, not knowing the way to return ..

She found herself stuck

her boat submerged

Almost

among the waterlilies

so she struggled and struggled

and there

somehow

startled a flock of water birds

what an image

how beautiful the mood

it was twenty one years ago

I first performed and recited this poem

in Midsummer

near Villa Romana of Klinger overlooking beautiful Florence

where I was once a guest for a month

How time flies

with this diary

I would like to say Ciao

to all my friends

and thank you

if you still remember me
