Why do I live?
Because of the rings around Saturn.
Because the Welsh must sing.
Because of Fragonard and
the lady perpetually on a swing.
Because Mozart, existed I exist;
he is the color of violets in the spring.
Live because of the eternal
nature of the sweet ring
of familiarity. I know you darling
angel light unashamed—bring
your joy to crack and melt
the dusty veil I held thin
around my soul. Mozart changed
the world and now I must sing.
How can I do otherwise honestly?
Through trials, journeys, despair, war
little birds and Mozart still sing
and I hear them better than before.

About Me
- Caterina
- I've always been an avid reader and writer. As a child, it was a joyous escape for me, now it is more than ever. There is so much freedom in being able to write down my thoughts and experinces to help or give pleasure to others. Recently, I've started taking photos to try to capture the beauty surrounding me.
