Summertime,
And the livin' is easy
Fish are jumpin'
And the cotton is high

Your daddy's rich
And your mamma's good lookin'
So hush little baby
Don't you cry

One of these mornings
You're going to rise up singing
Then you'll spread your wings
And you'll take to the sky

But till that morning
There's a'nothing can harm you
With daddy and mamma standing by

Summertime,
And the livin' is easy
Fish are jumpin'
And the cotton is high

Your daddy's rich
And your mamma's good lookin'
So hush little baby
Don't you cry



have a great weekend,
v
ps.Wikipedia says :
"Summertime" is the name of an aria composed by George Gershwin for the 1935 opera Porgy and Bess. The lyrics are by DuBose Heyward and Ira Gershwin, and has become a popular jazz standard. Gershwin is said to have based this song on a Ukrainian lullaby, Oi Khodyt Son Kolo Vikon (A Dream Passes By The Windows), which he heard in a New York City performance by Oleksander Koshetz’s Ukrainian National Chorus.

Gershwin began composing the song in December 1933, attempting to create his own spiritual in the style of the African American folk music of the period. It is sung multiple times throughout Porgy and Bess, first by Clara in Act I as a lullaby and soon after as counterpoint to the craps game scene, in Act II in a reprise by Clara, and in Act III by Bess, singing to Clara's baby.

Very good morning Vlad.
Lovely poem you wrote. It fitts perfect with this simple picture.
It all depends where your craddle stood.
Regards from Jan

Salut Vlad! Imaginea desi simpla ca incarcatura vizuala, e bogata prin mesajul ei. Armonia culorilor confera mult calm...muzica foarte bine aleasa! parca se si aude ca background, venind de la un radio vechi...

P.S. tre sa fii al naibii de ocupat ca dau de tine oriunde merg! acuma stiu! de-aia nu-ti citesti mesajele... ok, vroiam sa-ti spun ca am adaugat o alta poza la ws, ca si continuare a temei, daca esti interesat sa o vezi. no, zi faina!!!
