Notes About The Poem

September 30, 2023

ABCD Clerihew Poetry Contest

Sponsor: Joseph May

Andrea Bocelli

Phenomenal music legend undefeated Andrea Bocelli, 
            Lost eyesight in childhood, soulful voice his strength, from Italy!
           When performing on stage, he sounds like an angel from heaven, 
                  A surreal listening experience, a master who is driven!

He was a great singer. Few people seem to know he died earlier this year when he fell some stairs or balcony -not sure which. Blessings.

I apologize for the false rumour. Andrea is alive and will give concerts soon. I'm sorry for the person who spread false news.

Hi Victor, Google says - Andrea Bocelli is still alive, currently touring across 4 countries and has 15 upcoming concerts. Thanks for reading.

Thank you, Vijay! Andrea Bocelli is very famous, but he seems really humble to me! His voice is just out of this world! Appreciate your thoughtful comment, Vijay!

My Dearest Poet-Friend, Andrea Bocelli is an Italian singer, but he sings in English too. He is great in classical, opera, pop - all three categories in music. He was born visually impaired, and lost vision totally at age 12. You may listen to his performance of song "Prayer" - you will know how powerful and how incredibly beautiful his voice is! I am so glad you will be listening to him! Love ~

WoW! Mala, You chose a good person to write about. I fell in love with his voice when I heard him sing Prayer with Celine Dion.It didn’t matter if I understood the lyrics or not because his voice touched my soul. Best wishes in the contest, Have a wonderful weekend:-) Alexis
