  Your hands lie open in the long fresh grass, - The finger-points look through like rosy blooms: Your eyes smile peace. The pasture gleams and glooms 'Neath billowing [clouds]¹ that scatter and amass. All round our nest, far as the eye can pass, Are golden kingcup fields with silver edge Where the cow-parsley skirts the hawthorn hedge. 'Tis visible silence, still as the hour glass. Deep in the sunsearched growths the dragon-fly Hangs like a blue thread loosened from the sky: - So this winged hour is dropt to us from above. Oh! clasp we to our hearts, for deathless dower, This close-companioned inarticulate hour When twofold silence was the song of love.

    I was asked to write a piece on analyzing a text for symbolism, and I immediately knew what piece I would write my essay on. Recently, I have begun participation in the WSMA Solo and Ensemble program. In this, we ares asked to choose a vocal solo to perform in front of a judge, and you can choose your solo out of one of three categories. I chose a class "A" solo, and "A" is the most difficult class type solo, and is considered "College" leveled. I fell in love with the song, and the meaningful lyrics, and did a little digging, and found that the lyrics were based off of a 19th century poem. I chose this poem for it's flowing, descriptive language, and for the fact of the timeless love two people share within it.

    Your hands lie open in the long fresh grass, -- 
    The finger-points look through like rosy blooms: 
    Your eyes smile peace. The pasture gleams and glooms 
    'Neath billowing skies that scatter and amass. 
    All round our nest, far as the eye can pass, 
    Are golden kingcup-fields with silver edge 
    Where the cow-parsley skirts the hawthorn-hedge. 
    'Tis visible silence, still as the hour-glass.
