Shadows Dancing like the light in your eyes
Shadows Resonating in the moonlight
I'm dreaming that I'm awake
Floating free like a show shadow
Dancing in your arms

This poem represents the resonating nature of this composition. The beginning resonance builds into sounds and colors that seem to come from out of shadows of the resonant sounds. Sections of this piece are left to the conductors interpretation of entrances of voices.
