ORAZIO'S SONG.....A Donkey's Serenade
Ever since I was a little girl, I have loved Donkeys and Burros....During my life, I have had a few horses that I loved but, never a Donkey :-)...A few years ago, I used to go every few weeks and groom my tax preparer's donkey and that was pretty wonderful..her name was Agnes... but, that has been the closest I have come to a Donkey. Then, one day a few months ago, a FB friend Fivos posted a video (not this one) of his Donkey....Orazio....and I became Orazio's biggest fan..Orazio lives in Italy.....Recently, Fivos posted this video and I was inspired to write a song about Orazio. When I first said his name ....I saw music notes. I put his name into music...I hope you can hear it ...I will give a hint...it is at the beginning and every time you hear it... his name is being "said"...If you take a look at the video you will hear his "voice".....you will also hear ,in my song ,the music rendition of his voice and him running when called....
The middle melody depicts what I would do if I had him....we would walk in grassy fields and I would sit by him quietly ... as he munched away.. and daydream.....I used to do that with my horses...it was a wonderful thing to do....
Well, now I finally have my Donkey, if only in music :-)
I hope you like this fun little Donkey Serenade ...
ORAZIO .........
