Find for your pencils
A way to mark your memory
Of tired empty faces
Faces tired of wishes
Empty of dreams.

Live lighter

Let it slide
Let it burn
Let it hide
Let it turn
Let it snail
Let it run
Let it fail
Let it shine
Let it fly away
Let it rhyme
Let it stray
Let it wonder
Let it last
Let it plunder
Let it crash
Let it go
Let it crush
Let it grow
Let it burst
Let it fall
Let it vanish
Let it call
Let it banish
Let it cry
Let it crawl
Let it die
Let it be all.

Nostalgia

First love
First kiss
Love and friendship
First fall
First cry
I thought I would die
First day at school
First holidays
Oh happy days!
First regret
First pain
On my feet again
First doubt
First fight
That’s life!

Still waters

Reprise

As long as our eyes meet
There will be no boundaries
As long as we walk together
The path will be easy
As long as we fly
The sky will be ours
As long as we keep dreaming
Everything is possible.

She flapped her wings
Too soon
She stroke life
Too late.

Reprise

In our life there is a single color, as on an artist’s palette, which provides the meaning of life and art. It is the color of love.

Marc Chagall

Poetry and painting are done in the same way you make love; it’s an exchange of blood, a total embrace – without caution, without any thought of protecting yourself.

Joan Miró

Yesterday, today, tomorrow

Yesterday’s the past, tomorrow’s the future, but today is a gift. That’s why it’s called the present.

Bil Keane

Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.

Father and son

Reprise

Dear son,

This song is for you, my reason of beaming
This colourful painting is for you, my reason of living
This poem is for you, my reason of being
This letter is for you, my reason of smiling
This landscape is for you, my reason of believing
This mystic fog is for you, my reason of doubting
This home is for you, my reason of trusting
This love is for you, my reason of moving
Forward…always.
