Romance:
To Mozart

Symphony in G Minor
1^st Movement of Romantic Symphony

The wind dances through snow capped peaks
carrying messages of love.

The wind whispers songs of love,
as eagles float upon hot air currents:
desires rising out of deep valleys.

Emotions cascade down high falls
where nature echoes human desires.

Contrast repeating contrast
echoes the duality of human nature:
Yen and Yang;
Male and Female;
Merge in unity.

A unity that rises and falls,
as the circle of life
repeats endless cycles of birth and death;
endless cycles of cloudless skies and gathering clouds.
