C++ program as a Lisp expression

Hi,

I have read "Structure and interpretation..." several years ago and
even that I havn't written anything in Lisp, the book had great
influence on my programming experience.

As a C++ programmer I wondered if it was possible to have both C-like
syntax and Lisp-like programs as data. I have made an attempt to put
it into effect and created a data language, which allows expressions
that look nearly as C++ statements. The language includes lists, as
Lisp, but it also has records and tuples (I think this makes it more
clear what the expressions mean). And my language has syntactic sugar
operators to mimic common programming notations.

I'd be interested in hearing what Lisp experts have to say about it:
