The lyrics you quoted are beautiful. I encourage you to try your hand at composing. You can keep reworking your composition until you're happy with it.

You're right, Pauline, it's not like there's a deadline or anything. Greensleeves is enough this year.

That might be an interesting discussion thread, though: what are people's favorite "variations on a theme" or "fantasia on . . . " type of works, and why?

Hey Karen, the church choir director nixed "Greensleeves" for this year. Alas, it will be Vivaldi and Corelli...maybe I should show up with a viola, just out of spite!
Good luck! Have fun holding down the fort!
