Now that Winter is Upon Us is an original poem by composer James W. Knox. Written for SATB divisi with piano/ advanced level.
NOW THAT WINTER IS UPON US,
OUR MIND SLOWLY GOES UNDER SLUMBERING THOUGHTS.
LIKE DAYS BEFORE WHEN THE GOLDEN SUN SHINES BRIGHT ACROSS THE EARTH,
AND THE NIGHT'S GENTLE AIR KEEPS OUR HEARTS WARM.
SLOWLY, ALL FALL ASLEEP AND SILENCE FILLS THE SKY.
SILENT.
EARTH'S BLANKET IS NOW WHITE,
WITH SILVER GLEAMS OF WINTER'S DUST SOAR TO THE HEAVENLY STARS ABOVE.
THE MOON STRETCHES DOWN ONTO THE HIDDEN TREES,
ONLY TO FIND THE BARREN ARMS OF THE THINGS IT ONCE HELD.
LIFE IS STILL.
LIFE IS CALM.
PEACE SURROUNDS WHAT IS LOST AND WILL GUARD YOUR HEART,
UNTIL THE RETURN OF ALL THAT IS ANEW!
