So, here comes the early christmas gift from the self-appointed members of the
alectorfencer fanclub! :)
"A Winter's Repose" is written to the amazingly talented Alectorfencer, and features her Plant Spirit wolf (or "Tree Spirit" in the song, since that fit better with the poetry).
The lyrics are done by the closet poet
swandog
Vocals are sung by the amazing
dreamsong
The wonderful arwork for the melody is done by
seyorrol, and can be found here: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/9430222/
Be sure to fave it in his gallery! :)
This is the first time I have ever written a melody with a song, and the first time Swandog has had any melody written for her poems. It's far from the first time Dreamsong has sung a song, so she is the experienced party here. :)
"O Spirit of Trees, tell me where do you go,
Where do you hide, when the winter winds blow?
Your once verdant leaves, they all wither and die;
Now bare bones of branches claw at the sky.
Your breath plumes like smoke through frost-laden teeth,
From the mantle of snow you slumber beneath...
...Patient and still, until at long last, you rise,
Shake ice from your fur, and open your eyes;
Then you lift up your voice, and to the Trees sing,
And quicken to life, the green joy of Spring."

I am so proud of you and Dream for making this! I can't remember there was a song that touched my soul so deeply and made my wolf spirit feel like home... I felt almost nostalgic while listening to it, like I've been to that place where it takes you, like I've been there before... Thank you so much for this, thank you!
My comment is so late because it took me so long for my feet to touch the ground again after my mind soared and left me speechless.
I got carried away a bit when listening to Swandog's wonderful poem come to life with
dreamsong's wonderful singing and your music composition surrounding this, making me remember childhood dreams and plans that I always wanted to come true.
I'm in deep awe of this amazing surprise, of the amazing collaborative come together of so wonderful artists to create this wonderful gift. You can't imagine how happy and deeply touched I feel of this astounding and deep music piece.
We all have to overcome obsticals and foes in our lives. The paths we have to go are often covered with seemingly endless sharp rocks and inclines. Yet even when we feel barren and weak there is a glimpse for us to hold tight on and which makes us continue our journey until we broke the barrier which tries to hold tight and make us freeze, and to step on grassy and lively fields of hope. <3
Thank you so much for this wonderful music, for this beautiful project, for the wonderful surprise of creating this dreamy story. <3<3<3

*sque* I am really really glad you liked it. I was very nervous making anything after Wind Soul, since I was afraid I was not going to be able to write something as good as that again. So, I am very happy I managed to write something that you liked *OvO* It was a little scary, not having done anything with vocals in at all, but Dreamsong has done this before a few times, so her skills made it a lot easier.
It will not be the last song :) *happybounce*

My father, who is a new age musician, was in town hanging out with me when I first played this. Our conversation stopped and when the song ended he said, "hauntingly beautiful. Send that to me."
This really is an amazing song, with amazing art to go with it. Wow, just WOW. <3

I think he does! http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/hofgard He's primarily a piano player, but he's started practicing law again instead of pursuing music. I listened to your song AGAIN about six times this morning! XD
*hugs and purrrrrrs* Oh Sayh, this was such a beautiful piece to work on together with you! Swannie's lyrics and your music just enveloped me and carried me away... so much so that a couple times I forgot where I was whilst singing!
Thank you so much for inviting me to contribute! It was simply a joy to sing!

Oh but, I was honored to have you to sing my song! You have done AMAZING work with Fox Amoore and others, and I have never ever written a song before, and only written 2 melodies before this after a 10 year break *OvO*
You'r like a pro! *OvO* Am so happy you would sing for our project *OvO*

*blushes to the tips of her ears* Och wrooo, thank you so much!
*gently puts her paw on yours* You do beautiful work. I sincerely hope you continue to do more, you have a gift; a gift that blends so beautifully with your mate and her own gift for words. It really was beautiful to be a part of what the two of you wove together!
