Hi girls,
Last week has been full of things to do! Wedding venues visits in Venice with a lovely British couple, a menu taste with creative French bride and groom to be, meeting with actors we will tell you shortly about… My week-end was too short so I could recover…
I like the idea today to share with you a poem of well-known Italian poetry writer Erri De Luca, Considero Valore, I See Value, that I find fresh, sunny, and perfectly adapted with a summer symbolic Italian wedding ceremony that would take place in the Venice countryside in some old vintage, British style villa…
In every form of life I see value,
the snow, a strawberry, a fly,
I see value in the mineral kingdom,
the assembly of the stars,
I see value in wine as long as the meal lasts,
an inadvertant smile,
the weariness of he who has not been spared,
two old people who love each other,
I see value in what will not be worth anything tomorrow and today is still worth little,
I see value in all of the wounds
I see value in saving water,
repairing a pair of shoes,
to silence in time,
to rush to a scream,
to ask before sitting,
to be thankful without recalling for what,
I see value in the wanderer’s voyage,
the nun’s convent,
the prisoner’s patience, whoever’s the fault may be,
I see value in using the verb to love,
and the hypothesis that a creator exists.
