Sylva's Serenade dative Eyes

About the Book

Singing is part of our daily life. These collections of poems are for world singers, songwriters and musicians who contributed in our life to make us happy by singing their songs, and for those who enchanted our straggling life and continue to enchant.

Charles Aznavour: You Sang ‘She’ I will sing ‘He’
He is the man I can’t forget, the genes that I carry without regret.
He never left treasures that he had worked for. Gone with the wind . . .
He left His smile, endlessly gracing my fiery hart.
He was a saint ‘Unnamed’.
When I was young I never knew
His Hearted-Mind so wonderful, so kind.
