Todras, poeta, pianista, compositor, anfitrión, mitad del "Elegant Ivory Duo". Las relaciones son importantes, pero Evie Ivy también se enfoca en la naturaleza, "Yo respiro en el viento", dice, y en otro poema agrega: "No puedo escapar... con ropas largas escurriendo que se mueven con la brisa, a un día nuevo y soleado...", y ella también forma parte de "la hermosa noche". ¡La luna de plat
