6 - Caribbean Blue

On September 3rd 2008 my brother died, far too young.
He lived on the Caribbean island Curaçao.
My sister in law and their two young girls go on living there.
This was a present from my brother and sister in law, made on Curaçao:
a Mosaic saucer with lots of (Caribbean) blue.

... Eurus ...
... Afer Ventus ...

... so the world goes round and round
with all you ever knew -
They say the sky high above
is Caribbean blue ...


... if every man says all he can,
if every man is true,
do I believe the sky above
is Caribbean blue ...


... Boreas ...
... Zephryus ...


... if all you told was turned to gold,
if all you dreamed was new,
imagine sky high above
in Caribbean blue ...


... Eurus ...
... Afer Ventus ...
... Boreas ...
... Zephryus ...
... Africus ...


(Enya)
