Here is the text of the 4. cover page :
« To Josephine Delantar,
Josephine, the love of my life,
Josephine, the woman of my life, my ray of sunshine, my muse,
Josephine, with her natural beauty, her intense love, her dazzling smile, her infinite tenderness, her contagious joy of living, her tender kindness, her universal spirit, her many small thoughtful gestures that make life pleasant,
Josephine, who inspired and hummed so many songs created for her before she flew away to Heaven despite her young age and her beliefs,
Josephine, who had taken the habit of calling me "Mon tout" ("My all") in French, although she is German of Filipino origin.
I refuse the idea of an eternal absence since the power of love is eternal.
From now on remains a lasting trace of Josephine on planet Earth.
Thank you for your love, my all Josephine !
Mahal kita, Mahal ko Josephine ("I love you, my love Josephine")
My all Gilles »
