Subject: RE: Music req: Spring Will Come (Howard Kaplan) From: GUEST,Elizabeth Block Date: 31 Jan 22 - 06:27 PM Spring Will Come (Howard Kaplan) I have heard that the mother beaver Feeling crowded within her den Wants to know when her children will leave her For she soon is to bear again. Two long years they have shared her shelter, Mud and branches, a floor, a dome. When the ice-dams begin to melt, her Children will leave for another home. Tell the beaver the sun is returning. Tell her, too, that you heard it from One whose kind has been granted this learning: Spring will come. Spring will come. I have heard of the bear complaining That the winter is far too short. Days of spring that are warming, raining Come too soon, by the bear's report. Light and dry, like a falling feather, Snowflakes pile; the drifts are deep. Melting rains and the warmer weather Flood his den to cut short his sleep. Warn the bear that the sun is returning. Tell him, too, that you heard it from One whose kind has been granted this learning: Spring will come. Spring will come. I imagine the turtle thinking Thoughts of spring and the flowing sap As he left us in autumn, sinking To the bottom for six months' nap. Cooler weather had left him feeling Tired and slow; he did not look well. Soon he'll lie upon rocks where healing, Warming sun will restore his shell. Tell the turtle the sun is returning. Tell him, too, that you heard it from One whose kind has been granted this learning: Spring will come. Spring will come. I have heard that the two-legged creature, Dressed for warmth in another's fur, Thinks of me as a kind of teacher Who has knowledge to share with her. "Leave your burrow at early morning. Seek your shadow," I hear her say. "Is it welcome or is it warning? What is it you predict today?" Tell the woman the sun is returning. Tell her, too, that you heard it from One whose kind has been granted this learning: Spring will come. Spring will come |

I have been using it for weeks to try to learn my instrument and then suddenly, it was nowhere, just when I was trying to show it to someone who can read music, to hear if I had it right. |
Subject: RE: Music req: Spring Will Come From: Howard Kaplan Date: 16 Mar 21 - 04:01 PM As the composer of the song in question, I'm pleased to discover that you enjoyed hearing it. I suggest that you look here. You will find links to the sheet music and several audio files. |

Subject: Music req: Spring Will Come From: Mrrzy Date: 16 Mar 21 - 01:59 PM Lovely song from the Singaround closest to Groundhog Day, the singer posted the sheet music in the chat and I have lost my download of it. It is the song about the beaver and the bear and the woman, waiting for spring, song is from the groundhog's point of view. Help? Thanks! |
