This song is a setting of Sara Teasdale's poem, "Morning", and it won the Sixth Biennial Art Song Competition at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music.

The poem describes a transformative experience that takes place on one spring morning. Incidentally, Teasdale wrote it in 1915, and this setting was composed in 2015, making for an nice and even century between the two.

Morning

I went out on an April morning
   All alone, for my heart was high,
I was a child of the shining meadow,
   I was a sister of the sky.

There in the windy flood of morning
   Longing lifted its weight from me,
Lost as a sob in the midst of cheering,
   Swept as a sea-bird out to sea.

                                     Sara Teasdale, 1915
