and so it happened
that I could reflect
to write these words
in a poem
the words
of the famous conductor
Edgar Cree
he had a program
on Radio South Africa
long ago
that I used to love
when I was in school
he called it
From my window … the sea
Edgar Cree reflects
it still reminds me
of the symphonic work
La mer
The Sea
by Debussy
you see
Edgar Cree (1914–2002) (88) was a symphony orchestra conductor and Radio South Africa raconteur up to the early nineties. I was in high school from 1974 to 1978, and used to listen to classical music programs in the evenings in my room, lying in bed.
