Welcome, my name is Sylvia and I am a graphic designer writing from the beautiful city of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania in the United States. This blog features some of my photography, poetic ramblings and the beautiful photos that my son Wolfgang, my daughter Guinevere and my husband Philip (spanishwoods header photo) have taken. I am first generation American, 100 percent Spanish my parents born and raised in Barcelona and my heritage stretches from the north to the deep south of Spain. Spanish is my first language and the language of my soul.
Share my thoughts—come into the woods with me…

Thank you for following my poetry blog. I feel everyone who reads my poems is a gift, hopefully that will keep on giving, and I look forward to a leisurely walk in your garden of words.

We’re actually heading for Spain this summer, the Atlantic Coast of Spain, sailing south from Holland. I guess if your looking for a forest in Spain, that’s where you would find it.
