To Cyrano

© Jan Harmon

 

As Carol and Jan were going through some of Jan's old music, Carol picked out this one.  It had been a music class assignment in 1955 when Jan was about 15.  The harmonies are an alternating mix of Jan's and Mine.

My love is like the White Dove tree

Which growing, doth not question why

And doth not root itself in thee,

Nor shade thee from the summer sky.

And if, through love, this gentle heart breaks

In a thousand jagged parts

These shall not fall on thee as mirrors,

Nor swords, nor stars, nor even tears;

But they shall fall as leaves that know

Now is the amber time to go.

 

 

To Cyrano is recorded on the album Gatherings
