WHAT A WONDERFUL WORLD

Recently I heard a conversation on NPR about Louis (Louie, Satch) Armstrong (1901-1971) musician and singer and I then read a blog piece about him about one day later and I remembered well this hit song:

What a Wonderful World

I see trees of green
Red roses too
I see them bloom
For me and you
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world

I see skies of blue
And clouds of white
The bright blessed day
The dark sacred night
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world

The colors of the rainbow
So pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces
Of people going by
I see friends shaking hands
Saying, “How do you do?”
They’re really saying
I love you

I hear babies cry
I watch them grow
They’ll learn much more
Than I’ll ever know
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world
Yes, I think to myself
What a wonderful world
Ooh, yes

(Songwriters: George David Weiss / Robert Thiele
1967)
