Book Description
Closing my eyes and hearing the Earth sing, Caressing the sounds savoring them, Plunging into its fragrance, Touching its multiple textures with the tip of the eardrum, Brushing them with colours in the canvas of my closed eyelids Ruffling the most profound layer of its skin. Being the touch of the trickling water, the whistle of the wind, The rustling of leaves, the softness of a petal, The lightening of each thunder, the strength of a volcano, The caress of a sunset and the Sharp silence of the fog… The sounds of Nature reflect the echo of everything that resonates within.
