Even when we do not know anything about him, God "is like a voice from the voice that speaks inside." And in "Lader de Diu - When God sings" (Julian Ladolfi Editor), Franco Loi, one of our greatest poets of all time, a sort of weaves its dialogue with God, who reveals a voice of silence, but always present in human events.
"I talk to desire to be with the conscience," says the poet, animated by a deep religiosity and devoid of rhetoric.
In the verses there is the genuine atmosphere of the psalms, the power of prayer that lays bare, and breathes the spirit of the word of God we are in fact too busy and intellect "that fog is the light of our thinking!" and "how nice it is to hear that on the wind / is the embrace of a distant God who knows."
Loi knows that "the world crumbles as does the wheat ... is the man that defiles the world." But "in the belly of the life God will rummage" to "let us live the hidden reason of feeling" and invoke it with humility and trepidation serene "as we need God, how far we are."
