Poets as rich and diverse as Longfellow, Hood, Bronte, Burns, and Gibran here share their words, thoughts and visions with us.

Silence is rare in Nature. When we really listen, Nature is conducting symphonies of sound as her world goes about the day and night. Her invisible heartbeat is everywhere, for everyone. Our eyes are constantly bathed in the wonder of her ways, the soft drizzle of rain from soft grey clouds, the bleached harsh desert sand of a noon day, a wave caressing the shore, to the ravenous colours of a departing sunset. Indeed, whenever we look and listen to the vastness of our world Nature’s beauty is always there for us. In these 60 minutes Nature takes us through her world of wonder.

Hiawatha: Das ist der sagenumwobene Häuptling der Chippewa-Indianer, der an den Ufern des Großen Sees in Michigan gelebt haben soll. In 22 Strophen erzählt Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807 – 1882) von des großen Mannes Geburt, seiner Liebe zur Dakota Minnehaha, seinem friedvollen Wirken für sein Volk – und von seinem Tod. Nie wurde poetischer von den amerikanischen Ureinwohnern erzählt als in diesem Epos – das übrigens Antonin Dvorak zum zweiten Satz seiner Symphonie Nr. 9 "Aus der neuen Welt" inspirierte.
