about

This track was written for a performance at Breezeblock Beats in Frome celebrating the Winter Solstice of 2019. It is inspired by the poem of the same name by Norman Iles. This is a live recording of the performance that night, no overdubs or editing - it is what it is...

lyrics

When the warm times come
These bare, thin branches
Show what can be done.
Every bud unclenches,
Open hands fill in
All the blank between.
Feeling grows green,
Expands ad infinitum.
Nothing is left undone
That could be done.
Freed from tribulation,
Trees are all inspiration
As it should be seen.
