Il Suono di Bellezza (the sound of beauty) With the sweet breath of an angel the sound pours from his throat A noise so beautiful that life stops to listen… He embraces the quiet of the calm sea and lends it to us to hear, we who don't know it The love of the music comes from within him and he shares it with grace, with nobleness, with powerful images that float off his tongue, so that we may see in our minds what cannot be seen with the eye but what is eternally implanted on his soul I close my eyes, and listen, listen… His words, the sound, the beauty resonates in my senses My dreams ordained to music… Un rumore, il vento lo sveglia ( a noise, the wind awakes me) © caroline 1999 Inspired by the music of Andrea Bocelli ------------------ "Tread softly, for I have spread my dreams under your feet"~~William Butler Yeats |

And with this, you said it all: "with powerful images that float off his tongue, so that we may see in our minds what cannot be seen with the eye but what is eternally implanted on his soul" Magnificent, beautiful...etc...amazing! |

Many thanks for all of you... Balladeer's "Fourth Tenor" reminded me of this one (I wrote it a long time ago!) and I thought to post it for him as we obviously are both fans of the opera Toe!!! *LOL* Didn't you see the "disclaimer" at the bottom? This was actually inspired by a superb Italian singer named Andrea Bocelli. But I'd give Balladeer a listen! LOL...oh and btw...I've seen him...he doesn't look like a bug at all! heheheh ------------------ "Tread softly, for I have spread my dreams under your feet"~~William Butler Yeats |
