In this setting of Sara Teasdale's famous poem, the music and words celebrate the beauty of the earth and convey a deep love for our planet: "Oh Earth, you are too dear tonight." The initial rich chordal harmonies in the piano contrast with the fervent sentiment and angular simplicity of the opening unison vocal lines. This work is ideal for nature, landscape, or ecology-themed programs.
