Podcast: writing for peace
if all the peoples of the earth would stop wars
and they laid down their arms and made peace,
then all children would have schools
and they would play carelessly in the square,
books they would flip through
in the library with fury.
knowledge would be learned,
lifelong learning.
We would all like to have a picnic again,
all together in the countryside, young and old.
wars wouldn’t start again, unless there was snow,
where everyone would throw snowballs under the balcony.
parkour, games and in the parks we would play together,
sunny we would fill their days nicely.
we would go on more trips,
if fuel wasn’t so expensive.
around the world we would travel
new cultures we would unravel.
not to discriminate,
let us not suffer the same.
Friendship would overflow from the children
and we would all happily play together.
my beloved italy
Oh, I was going for a walk in Milan.
I would be a bird, I would fly
I would go all over the sky.
over all the plains
I would sing all the time.
we would build castles in the sand
with a builder from Samos.
If on earth we had peace,
all this could have been of a cake a piece
