About "Come away, away, children!
Come, children, come down!
The hoarse wind blows colder;
Lights shine in the town.
She will start from her slumber
When gusts shake the door;
She will hear the wind howling,
Will hear the waves roar.
We shall see, while above us
The waves roar and whirl,
A ceiling of amber,
A pavement of pearl.
Singing: 'Here came a mortal,
But faithless was she:
And alone dwell for ever
The kings of the sea.'"

From The Forsaken Merman

This is excellent work, Shirley! The incorporation of the portrait (hair especially) into the shot of the sea in turmoil is perfectly done!!! Tonality....a beauty!And the poem is just what was needed to go full way in the creation of this piece of art!WONDERFUL!!!!!

Dear Francisco, since the links were not active, I had difficulty finding the music video, but finally did locate several on youtube. Thank you so very much for sharing this information and the beautiful song!:)

Poetic indeed... It reminded me the story of the poet Alfonsina Storni check her out at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alfonsina_Storni

A very nice poem/song was written for her... The poem with the English translation can be found at http://ingeb.org/songs/alfonsin.html and the music video sang by Mercedes Sosa and María Rita can be seen at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Id6jbE9yefo

Very sensitive and beautiful...

Hugs.

Francisco

Wow! What a surprise-a beautiful one indeed!Seeing this fresh image i thought,Time i went to the sea!Then,for some reason, I remembered a really poignant poem by Thomas Hardy; Beeny Cliff,and I read it again for the first time in years and was amazed by its beauty......anyway,its just a click away on google...take alook and tell me what you think.
Have agood weekend, Tony

beautifully rendered, I like the hi key, nice tones...
a contradiction in the mood, there's a clash looking at it. I feel the power of the sea against her pleasant smile and beautiful face, and her side glance feels so soft against the the splash of the wave on the rock. her smooth face against the rough sea...
nice one Shirley, good composition..
