Trees




"Trees are sanctuaries. Whoever knows how to speak to them, whoever knows how to listen to them, can learn the truth. They do not preach learning and precepts, they preach, undeterred by particulars, the ancient law of life".

'O sole mio


The 3 Tenors (Domingo, Carreras, Pavarotti), live, Los Angeles, 1994

’O sole mio is a globally known Neapolitan song written in 1898. Its lyrics were written by Giovanni Capurro and the music was composed by Eduardo di Capua while he was admiring a magnificent sunrise in Odessa (Ucraina). ’O sole mio is the Neapolitan equivalent of standard Italian "Il mio sole" and translates literally as "my sunshine".



It's Now or Never is a ballad recorded by Elvis Presley in 1960. It is one of two popular songs based on the Italian song 'O Sole mio, the other being There's No Tomorrow, recorded by U.S. singer Tony Martin in 1949, which inspired Presley's version.

Reflections


Riflessi
Impressioni
Riflessi tremuli nell'acqua
come affetti ondeggianti,
leggeri e luccicanti,
sfuggevoli;
come chimere sfocate,
ossessive e mutevoli,
agognate;
come ricordi labili,
lontani e inarrivabili,
perduti;
come parole sfaccettate,
dolci e appaganti,
passate.

The music of bees


La musica delle api
Fantasia
Presto lieve e fluente,
mille notine
graziose, nitidissime, ovattate,
frizzanti come vispe bollicine,
impalpabili volano sui fiori
multicolori,
agili, a ondate,
brulicanti, dorate,
in crescendo e diminuendo festevoli,
i petali attraversano vibrando,
dolci armoniose corrono da un fiore
all'altro con mulinelli fuggevoli;
poi il suono si attutisce gradualmente,
le notine svaniscono,
la melodia si spegne
in un sereno addio trasparente...

Universal Prayer


Preghiera Universale
Spiritualità
Qual mira folla sulla scalinata
che conduce al santuario negli spazi
trasparenti! Popolazioni assorte
cantano inni fra immensi altocumuli
chiari, aprono consolatrici porte,
nella salubre aria, fra i topazi
purissimi e splendenti della fede.
C'è amore, gioia, verbo, melodia,
tutte le religioni son presenti:
all'unisono con lene empatia
pregano intense quelle azzurre genti.

Shades








Madrigale dell'Anemone

Il fior candido e blu che s'apre al vento
nasce dal sangue del giovane Adone
dal feroce cinghial di Marte spento.

La natura vivace il bene spera
nella nuova mutevole stagione,
con Proserpina sorge Primavera.

Fior di resurrezione, la sublime
netta fede rigenera la luce
in dimensione arcana, oltre le cime
dei cieli perfettissimi conduce.

Pietro Brosio
