Day By Day Poem by Giovanni Bellasario

Day by Day we walk free
fresh garden vegetables
plump farm grown fruit
savory smelling cheeses
daily fresh made bread
fresh caught fish and seafood
these are the fruits of our labour
Day in and Day out we trade
we buy, we sell, we eat!

shopping in the market open air
smelling the freshness of the sea
salting perfectly the fresh pastas
children running and laughing
in the piazza, losing their famiglia
maybe this is on purpose as they grin

safe, we are in hands of freedom
day by day we are gratefully living
we feed and protect as we are serving
the polizia are eating and protecting
we are one, our Italia, day by day

we are simple in our life and enjoy
we are strong and our famiglia come first
as we support and share our everything's
with the growers and with the protectors
with the fisherman and with the famiglia
we live and we breathe, day by day
