For the month of September I am going to choose a piece of music or song and write a poem or alternative version. Jane Dougherty is doing a September Stanza here. And Kat Myrman is doing September a poem a day Here
Today I have picked Andrea Bocelli singing Canto Della Terra
Written by composer Francesco Sartoriand lyricist Lucio Quarantotto. I love this song and have written my own in terpretation.
Poem of earth and love
Your eyes
Deep blue of the skies.
Your hands
Soft like rain on the land.
We lie
Between the dark and the light
We are wrapped in the arms of the night.
This earth
Holds us in it care
We need
To treat it better, be fair.
We love
We live on this earth
Fly high like the dove
Give the earth as it’s worth.
We lie
Between the dark and the light
We are wrapped in the arms of the night.
