We will drink all this wine tonight because it's Spring. It is. It's a growing sea. We're clouds over the sea, or flecks of matter in the ocean when the ocean seems lit from within. I know I'm drunk when I start this ocean talk. Would you like to see the moon split in half with one throw? Texts by Rumi, translated by Coleman Barks © 1995 Coleman Barks. Used by permission.

This work is suitable for a soloist or unison choir. The accompaniMent is originally scored for piano, but we have rendered it with organ accompaniMent. In a liturgical setting, this work is especially suitable for Baptisms and other services that feature the use of sanctified water (healing and comMemorative services). Equally, it would make a reflective motet for use during the distribution of Holy Communion. Many thanks to the Swell Vox crew in this video for beautifully performing the piece: Tony Lee, Caleb Smith, Andrew Flores, JaMes Flores (organ).
