for medium-high voice and piano
The poems of e. e. cummings often sing to me. The whimsical poetry of "one winter afternoon" inspired a playful concoction for voice and piano. This song also serves a pedagogical function: to help vocalists sing a whole-tone scale. In this piece several whole-tone passages alternate with a tongue-in-cheek romantic style.
one winter afternoon
by E. E. Cummings
one winter afternoon
(at the magical hour
when is becomes if)
a bespangled clown
standing on eighth street
handed me a flower.
Nobody,it’s safe
to say,observed him but
myself;and why?because
without any doubt he was
whatever(first and last)
mostpeople fear most:
a mystery for which i’ve
no word except alive
—that is,completely alert
and miraculously whole;
with not merely a mind and a heart
but unquestionably a soul--
by no means funereally hilarious
(or otherwise democratic)
but essentially poetic
or etherally serious:
a fine not a coarse clown
(no mob, but a person)
and while never saying a word
who was anything but dumb;
since the silence of him
self sang like a bird.
Mostpeople have been heard
screaming for international
measures that render hell rational
—i thank heaven somebody’s crazy
enough to give me a daisy
